There are some exceptions at times (like pickles), but for the most part, I hate the texture of crunchy vegetables. Particularly onions, broccoli, and cauliflower, but pretty much any veggie, is worse uncooked or undercooked imo. I hate most raw vegetables by themselves or in salads, but undercooked ones may be even worse because I was promised and expecting something cooked. Crunchy peppers or onions ruin a pizza as one example. Under-done carrots and potatoes in a curry, which I had yesterday, is another perfect example.

This may not be a universally unpopular opinion but I definitely feel like I’ve had a lot of people seem surprised by me not liking raw veggies.

    I like eating raw onions dipped in ranch.

    They give me terrible heartburn every time, but I still do it cuz they are tasty af. Sweet onions like walla walla don’t have that heartburn problem as much but they also don’t make me regret my life choices, so its not the same. Red onions are the sweet spot, still regrets but better flavor-to-misery ratio.

    My dad ate them like apples, but only the super potent small white home grown ones. I didn’t get this from him, at least not behaviorally, cuz I didn’t really know him from 5-18. So its either in my genes, which is my present hypothesis, or onions are just actually great.
