9/1/2023 0 Comments Pepoet na momMy mom, who at first pleasantly surprised that I volunteered to make my own lunch, quickly discovered the real reason – I was making tuna or egg salad sandwiches with equal parts of mayo and tuna/egg. I would get in trouble for eating mayo straight out of the jar, which grossed out the rest of my family (and many of you who just read that, I’m sure!). I loved (and still love) mayonnaise and eating artichokes meant that I had an excuse to eat as much of it as I wanted. However, I have to admit that I was initially drawn to artichokes more for the mayonnaise and soy sauce dip that my mom served with them, rather than their actual flavor. One of the few vegetables I did eat as a child was artichokes. In fact, I enjoy eating a variety of them and even grow some in my garden. I am certainly much better at eating vegetables now. ![]() I’m proud to say that I’ve come a long way since then. Thank goodness she never made me sit at the dinner table until I finished all my vegetables because I would most likely have sat there until I turned 18. ![]() Like many kids, I just didn’t like vegetables. I would always grumble at my mom’s insistence that I eat something green and/or leafy. Growing up, I wasn’t a particularly picky eater.
