Oh yeah, I don't like avocados either. I do however like guacamole, whether as a chip dip or a topping for burritos or haystacks. Although that's only because of the yummy spices added to it. Sometimes I swear my mother actually manipulates herself into liking some foods just because they're healthy. She eats avocados whole and raw, and loves them in salads and sandwiches. I doubt she likes them for their taste or texture though. It's just because they're "healthy". I can't handle them. The taste is just way to bland and they're way to slimy and, let's face it, they remind many of us of something that is far from appetizing.

Another I should mention is brewers yeast. This is a fetish of my dad's. He likes it sprinkled on everything from popcorn to pancakes. No kidding. Again, he likes it because it's healthy, but he's not manipulating himself into liking it as I know he also likes the taste. But that stuff smells and tastes like fermentation. Yuck.
