N.B. You may have noticed how out of date some of the items in the last verse are: Fonzie! Pinball! Rubik’s cubes?! Ha, I guess you’ll have to explain these to your kids! Sorry ’bout that! 😀
Oh, and by the way: My son now eats an even greater variety of vegetables than I do! Go figure, eh?

Does he have any idea what caused him to like a wide array of veggies?

As his sister, I have various theories, but I should probably let him answer 😂

Anne, you may have figured out by now that all the comments on here by “tripill” are from my son, Jeremy. He uses that alias all the time. I forget why; I asked him once years ago but I forget the answer. Tsk. I’m such a bad mom! 😀

It’s better to be a tripill than a bitter pill to swallow. My son has a name I don’t understand, too. He likes it that way.

That is great! My favorite part was ‘Yucky, mushy goo!’ That’s how I felt at a young age about vegetables.

Ha, only parents of young kids especially boys (!) – or the boys *themselves* (!) can relate to this. 😀

Lolol Btw: what was it that made you LIKE most veggies now??! And do you eat beets?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yes, although I hated beets as a kid. Don’t know if you can pinpoint it to one thing other than just ‘Being an Adult’.
