Still can not abide Lima beans!
We’re kindred spirits on that. Can’t stand them, don’t want to look at them, and will not eat them.

is there anyone who can eat lima beans. Succotash was my enemy. I used to flick the lima beans into the radiator next to the table. Fortunately my mother was a lousy housekeeper.
The Oldman demanded Ham and Lima bean soup weekly.
I would eat the Ham, sop up all the soup with bread and then Cry! LOL
Wretched things...
The old southern way of doing limas is to cook them to a pulp with a chunk of pork fat, well-seasoned up to sometimes spicy, with a fair amount of dairy butter. Ends up more like a thick soup. Probably not the healthiest thing but I’ve always loved it.
My vegetable aversion is Brussels sprouts. Taste bitter to me, it’s like little turbo cabbages, that vague cabbage funk times ten, not so vague anymore, it’s concentrated. I’ve since encountered roasted Brussels sprouts in olive oil and seasoning that are actually edible, but childhood memory puts me off of actually admitting that I like them in any form.
