For me there's a lot of seafood that grew on me. Guess beans too, used to avoid them in chili.

Then there's the flip side of things you liked young but not now. Didn't mind raw tomato as a kid, but only like cooked now, excluding salsa. I also brought too much tuna on a 40 plus mile backpacking trip, and can't do it anymore.

My 96 year old neighbor and her daughter are from the Scranton area, shared a few dishes from the region with me. Lots of corn dishes and potatoes. I can't remember what they called them but it wasn't something I cared much for and it was very bland. I didn't go back for seconds. I had an Aunt near Titusville but she grew up in northern Maine so her meals were a mix of PA and New England cooking (bland). I love spicy foods after seeing the world. It's hard to find much really good, authentic ethnic in my area except Italian food. It seems like everything is "americanized". Best new england meals here are things like seafood chowder, lobster, deep sea scallop dishes, haddock, clams, mussels. I love the fresh seafood here. Good stuff.

Only been to Maine once. Agree. Depends on the traditional pa food, but some can be bland. I grew up next to my Italian uncle so we definitely go more that way. Feel like I cook in more French and Italian styles, plus part Hungarian so I like paprika. We always had a thing for spicy too, so some Mexican stuff.
