From Hating Veggies to Loving Them: A Journey
Reading Time: < 1 minute

What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger?

I am in India right now at my uncle’s place, and we were discussing our childhood habits. During those conversations, my mom told me how I had changed over the years. Earlier, I hated veggies and would remove tomato and potato from curries, literally just touching the veggies with roti.

Now I have no reservations at all; I can eat anything. I actually wonder: how can I not like potatoes in pulao and tomatoes in aloo-tamatar curry? Now that I know the importance of health and nutrition, I don’t mind eating anything good for my health.

Few vegetables like Lauki, Torai were the worst one that used to bring tears to my eyes. I vaguely remember, I was so pissed of seeing such veggies in my plate and I used to take out “unwanted” ingredients from my curries.

Now it’s my turn to see all this through my kid, who is 3.5 years old. He is just like me and doesn’t like any veggies; he will eat all kinds of junk food. I still feel he is a better version of me, though, as he likes broccoli, oats, and smoothies. So something better than nothing.

Happy Reading! Keep traveling!!!
