74. I might be one of those.

I cannot eat several vegetables because of the taste.

I have always hated onions; and now I'm allergic
to them.

Hate: beets, brussel sprouts, kale

I had to learn to tolerate broccoli, squash, pumpkin, cabbage, etc

I have always liked the ones that tend towards sweet
or a good taste.
