The challenge origin is from here.
Five foods. Well, that's freaking easy. So I'm trying to make it a little harder. Five foods that pleasantly surprised me - those foods that I thought I wouldn't like at first sniff/glance, and I actually was wowed by them.
1. Feta. Love love love feta even though it smells and looks a little suspicious.
2. Pesto. Pesto is wet, green, and kind of lumpy. Kind of STD looking (and yes, I worked at a gynecologist so I feel like I can make analogies to STDs). But it's very yummy - pesto, not STDs.
3. Teriyaki sauce. Seattle has a heavy Asian influence, and my mother hates spice and Asian food. Therefore, I wasn't really exposed to a whole lot of Asian food or spice growing up. Once I tasted teriyaki in college and I really liked it. Now I have something to order when I go to Asian restaurants, and we have teriyaki chicken at home.
4. Gumbo. It was one of those intimidating foods that I really wasn't sure about, but it was really good.
5. Cumin.
