I make the sweet potatoes with brown sugar and marshmallows for thanksgiving… every year and I hate them too… so I always reserve one or two sweet potatoes that are just baked and I put butter on them just like a baked potato… much better! My dh has quite a sweet tooth and likes that sugary stuff… so it is a labor of love to make it for him and the kids…

Oh… whoever said that they got shredded wheat with hot water… yuck! My mom made it with hot milk… and it was much better!

Squash is awesome if you cook it right. We do acorn, spaghetti, butternut, zucchini, and summer squash… but I don’t make mine sweet… I add butter and spices to acorn, cheese and butter to spaghetti, butternut is good stuffed with meat, green peppers and rice, and zucchini and summer squash is sauteed with butter and dill… yum!

I like sweet potatoes like baked potatoes, too. YUM! I serve them that way as long as sweet potatoes are in season.

Not on your life… just brown sugar, butter and marshmallows… 😃

Liver :eek: :eek: :eek:

Shrimp (the smell of it cooking makes me nauseous)…I will cook it for New Years for my dh and oldest ds since they like it 😉

Canned peaches; I’m sensitive to certain textures and canned peaches just make me gag. After becoming a parent, I vowed I would never make my dc eat anything they couldn’t stand…it 's just not worth it.

Our version has Karo syrup blended into 1/2 cup of brown sugar. This is poured over the canned and drained sweet potatoes. On top of that, a can of drained crushed pineapple. On tops of that, the marshmallows.Broil until browned.

ugh.

Barf.
 
I could say “liver”, but I was never made to eat it as a child. I tried several times – I really used to like the smell of it cooking, but when I tasted it – yech! The taste and texture both turned me off. When Mom made liver, she generally made something else for me.

As for candied sweet potatoes: brown sugar and butter, that’s it! 👍
