I grew up that every Saturday my Mother made a big pot of beans and rice. People dropped over on Saturdays for those beans. I old boyfriend who when we broke up lamented he wouldn't have any more of my Mom's beans and rice. Years later like 15 he called me and asked if my Mother still made those beans I said yes and I now made them for my husband. But ironically, my son doesn't like beans and rice!!!!!
My husband has forbid me from making Lima beans though.

I love food. Period. It would be more productive to ask what bad-for-me food I love.

Ha! Truth is, I'm a vegan, in spite of missing the taste of a Big Mac, or a good meat loaf.

There are some vegetables I like better than others, but peas truly make me sick

I like the taste but can't stand the feel of okra and egg whites make me feel queasy.

Fish, mushrooms, liver, kale, soup, stew. Hubby stopped nagging me to eat fish, finally.
