coconut
This one might be a half a point for me. I love the flavor of it (Thai coconut soup, anything with coconut milk in it, etc.) but I hate the texture. The texture is what I imagine eating sawdust would be like.
Same. Took me a while to realize I did like the flavor. My SIL makes some pretty good coquito.
as a kid: Why would anyone cover a delicious donut* or any dessert by putting coconut on it?
my age: Why would anyone cover a delicious donut or any dessert by putting coconut on it?
- Donuts in particular because as a young child, I picked a donut with coconut flakes covering the exposed surface area. I did my best to spit out each flake.
When we were leaving and I was not be allowed to get a donut that is coconut free. In terms of eating, I always wanted to save the best for last. So I was unable to get a better taste in my mouth.
Just a note, I was somewhere between 7 and 10.
