Culinary 1
Many students tell me that they don't like to eat vegetables. Why do you think so many young people don't like to eat vegetables. Describe what vegetables and fruits you enjoy and how you like them prepared.
I thinks it because when you tell some one that they have to or need to do something, they want to do the opposite. I like carrots, the way I like them prepared is sautéed in butter.
its because they may have ate it so much or the fact that their parents force them to. I like carrots made in the brown sugar glaze my mom makes. its really good because its sweet.
I am the 1% of students who actually enjoys vegetables. My favorite is steamed broccoli mixed in with some chicken, topped with teriyaki sauce. But that is just me, I love eating fruits and vegetables because, for one, they taste good if prepared correctly and they are also very healthy for you. I think most people don't eat vegetables is because their parent forced them to eat some crappy variety of them as a kid and they never really had to chance to fully enjoy the flavor and health benefits they can provide.
Because when your young you are made to eat a certain vegetable and you don't like it any more. I like vegetables sautéed most of the time. I like my fruit cut up and put into yogurts and various deserts.
I like just about any fruit but vegetables on other hand I like them just certain ones like Brussel sprouts I don't like. my favorite thing to do with vegetables is take and saute zucchini, squash, broccoli ,onions, and carrots
I believe a lot of it is personal palette or being trained to enjoy something. If we eat it a lot as a child then we are more likely to like it later on...........or in your case, Chef; eating too much ramen and PB&Js has caused you to abhor them. As for me, I love oranges and cucumbers.
I think a lot of young people don't like fruits and vegetables because they are good for our bodies and don't provide the sugars that people love the taste of. I am allergic to most fruits and vegetables with the pollen but I can have processed or canned fruits and vegetables so that's why I don't eat the way I should be and maybe others have this allergy too.
kids dont like to eat them because their parents tell them they have to and kids dont like being told what to do. i like almost all fruits and vegetables.

ReplyDeletebecause of the color of them. Most peoples parents don't raise them eating them. i like mango's and Lima beans; those are my two favorite.
