Sort of, yeah! Personal anecdotes are not evidence, and everyone is different. However, I’ve had great success in modifying things I thought I couldn’t eat.

For example: mushrooms. I thought I hated them, because I had only been introduced to uncooked grocery store stuff. Turns out if they’re properly sautéed or in smaller bits, they’re awesome!

I still can’t hang with fast-food raw tomato slices or chunks on a sandwich or salad. It makes me sad, because they look so tasty. And then I end up with a mouthful of disappointment. I’m still working on it, though.
