If you don't love garlic, slicing it thin & distributing it over a

Beetroot plus lettuce is a combination that surprisingly improves its
taste, and yes you can use lettuce in soups.

I think I might switch to celery instead. That I quite like, although
my sons can't bear it. Who knows how these lifelong aversions come about

They're an evolutionary survival tactic. If a food source turns bad,
at least
some will survive and the village/tribe continues.

I think it's more likely to be a defence tactic the body uses when it
knows a certain food is bad for it. For someone else, that food will be
good and doesn't taste awful to them.


Now that's what I need to hear. Doughnuts are good, broccoli is bad. Hooray!
