What enjoyable flavours can you remember tasting for the first time?

#food #memories #flavor #flavour

I remember my first tastes of dry-roasted peanuts (eating some right now).

I also remember eating #yoghurt for the first time.

My first taste of #retsina (Greek wine) was shocking, then more-ish.

Funny how some things you can't taste the same way again. Your brain adjusts, and can't capture the surprise anymore.

Retsina is like that for me now, just tastes ordinary. Would love to taste it for the first time again.

@ottaross Not exactly a "first time" thing, but might still count... I tried olives years ago and hated them, and then one day for a work lunch, I accidentally got some in a sandwich and thought, actually, they're not too bad! 😂 Love them now.

@mootParadox nice! It's great how our tastes evolve and let us enjoy things at different times in our lives.

Kalamata olives - maybe you've tried those. They're pretty great.

@ottaross Funnily enough, I've been picking up these packs - which are probably not as good as properly fresh olives, but they're still very tasty, and great for taking out on picnics! 😋 But fresh Halkidiki olives with my lunchtime sandwich today...
@mootParadox aha! Looks like a handy size for lunches & such.
