While growing up as a child many people have some delicacies they dislike eating.Due to personal reasons , some refuse to eat such food because of taste, manner of cooking, Ingredients involved in cooking and because they are not familiar with the food.I will be sharing my thoughts of the foods I dislike and love when growing up a child.Focused on the guideline questions given below 👇.

Food taste for me depends on individual, some people eat foods because is taste.To good to satisfied their desires not focused on the nutritional value involved .As far as the foods is not tasting sweet in the mouth majority of people won’t eat that particular.

Also, the ingredients involved in preparing a particular meal matters alots. .Some people may love to eat particular foods but as far a particular species prepared with it this discouraged them to eat because it doesn’t taste goods.Food taste shouldn’t only be focused how it taste in the mouth but how taste of the food will contribute to your nutritional value in the body.

Growing up as a child up as child when it comes to foods , was not that way complicated.Eventhough I had some foods I didn’t like eating .These food are Achu, pepper soup and spicy food like jelof rice when prepared with green beans and carrots.

Achu is the one of the most delicacy consumed in my country It’s pounded coco and banana. The soup is made of red oil with some ingredients to be eaten with .Most especially in the northwest region of Cameroon.My region of origin, this particular serves as a traditional meal to some tribes in my region .When growing up I never love eating this food Achu.

This was because the spices used in preparing this traditional meal .Had a strong smell which was not pleasant to me .At times I feel like vomiting .I succeeded to eat but the meat if it is not mixed with Achu soup. One thing I noticed too what when growing up is the manner most people around me prepared this meal.

In addition, another meal I dislike eating was pepper soup .Mostly it is prepared with un ripe plantains or yams.This particular I didn’t love eating it because the spices prepared was not tasting in my mouth good when I was a child.

So for this reason, I was not eating pepper soup wether prepared with plantain or yams.I tried serval time but any time I will feel as to vomits. This particular is consumed by many tribes in my country as Favorite meal.

Lastely , I had a big problem eating spicy food most especially jellof rice prepared with prepared with carrots and green beans .cooking rice just with tomatoes and onions I can manage to to eat.But when carrot ,green beans and green spices was added.Automatically, I want eat it .I felt like these spices are not tasting good in my mouth.At that time I was not eating carrots nor greenbeans.

Of course all these food I have mentioned above , growing up in the long run I decided to develope the habit of eating delicacies.Now Achu that I did like eating is one of my favorite foods I love eating.As was growing I started developing love for this food.

Also, I discovered one of the reasons I dislike eating these foods was the method people around me use in cooking at that time .like Achu in my tribe of origin most people at that time love cooking but they didnot know how to prepare the meal.I came across my aunty who made me again to love eating this particular meal.

I earlier mentioned when I was a child I dislike eating the foods I have mentioned above but when I was growing up .I discovered it health benefit to me tried and work hard to develop the the love consuming these food.I know how beneficial it’s to my health.

Even though, It not everything no matter how important it is your health .At times forcing to love you can’t still change the situation.At times it’s just natural,I can’t put pressure on someone to consume something because of it health benefits and at the same time will affect when consume.

Huckleberry and fufucorn , is one my favorites meal I love consuming since child hood uptill now .This foods is my traditional and I grow up consuming it through out .At times my mother prepared it 3 times a week.

Growing I continued to consume this meal because is what I grew up eating .Also, it’s nutritional value is plays an important role to the body.

I have come to the end of my presentation.
