Why do people hate vegetables?

I always wondered this.

I eating almost all my veggies except bittermelon. It usually depends on the tastebuds

[Myrmicon]

Most people I know don't hate vegetables. And I like them. Sooo.. no idea.

They usually taste bad. It's that simple.

Vegetables are generally terrible unless well cooked.

It has to do with evolution. Ancient humans learned rather quickly that bitter foods were often poisonous and thus they avoided them. Sweet foods, on the other hand, weren't usually harmful.

Since vegetables are bitter in taste, we avoid them from a young age as a survival mechanism. (This is also why you need to be disciplined with children when it comes to food.)

I grew up in the 60's. Vegetables came in a can and had been boiled to make sure they were dead. Then they were boiled again for 30 minutes on the stove to make extra sure they were dead. Fresh vegetables were boiled for 30 minutes to make sure they were dead.

All this vegetable death made them taste terrible. But they were GOOD for you!. Except they had been boiled so much that drinking the water they had been boiled to death in was almost as nutritious as the vegetables could have been.

About the only exceptions to being boiled were celery and leaf lettuce. But then they were tasteless.

That and I'm a supertaster. Can't stand anything bitter. Including beer.

EXCEPT ZUCCHINI. ♥♥♥♥ zucchini.

Originally thought the question was "Why do people hate vegans?"

I don't really hate vegetables. Don't like brussel sprouts much though, makes the whole house smell when you cook them.
