I was a good kid!

I always wondered why they were even there.

🙂👍

They were always my son's favorite vegetable. I love them, too.

We promise, Deb, to never serve you the Lima bean delish dish should you ever come to our houses for dinner. Heck, after Lois and Polly polished them off none would be left for you. Also love Butter
beans. 😍

liked so I grew up eating them. It's all In the seasoning and cooking time.

I like peas just fine now, esp. whole, fresh sugar snap pea and snow pea which I use in stir fry ALL the time. I use frozen peas in Spanish rice when I make it, and have been known to throw some in soups but I still wouldn't eat like a bowl or side of just peas, cause they're boring.

Lima beans? Still not a fan

Just yuck

Lima beans, chili beans, baked beans......the only beans I really eat to this day are green beans.

Eggplant is the only vegetable I turned away.

I was such a picky eater as a kid. Maybe a little better as a tween, early teen. Finally changed around 15 hrs old.

I liked corn, carrots; that might be it.
Maaaybe onions in certain things.

and other beans are fine. Other veggies are fine (as long as they aren't overcooked and slimy). But LIMA BEANS. No way!!! I detest them. The smell, the texture, the horrible feel in the mouth. Umm, no. I'm with you debm55.

Reminds me of the Republican party...mixed up vegetables...most of them anyway.

To me they were the vegetable equivalent to liver and onions!

Still not a fan, and there aren't many veggies I don't like.
My wife says both of your veggies would be what she said.
I'm ok with peas. She is not.

I eat them now. Still not my favorite.

We had to eat them all.

When I moved out on my own, I was startled to discover I didn’t have to eat Brussel sprouts or cauliflower.

Oddly, I always liked Lima beans. Haven’t had them in years.

Peas, carrots, corn and green beans. I like all of them. If there lima beans or any bean other than green beans they would have went on the floor.

There would have been no mashed potatoes at the end the meal to hide under

There was probably no way my father would have eaten them.


As far as what I hated as a kid, beets and canned sweet potatoes would probably top that list.

They are an affront to decency!!

And I like most other vegetables except for beets and kale.

I eat both now on occasion.

But any food waste at all was extremely frowned upon in my Mother's family. Finally she just started making lima beans with tomatoes, onions, and peppers, and spices. That was much better, but it seems like when she got us to eat that, we went back to pinto beans.
