That is one thing I don't do - cook something I don't like. If my
husband wants something I don't like, he cooks it himself.
Part of my problem is that I have a massive fish phobia and I don't
even like touching it, never mind cooking it. And that is the major
food item my husband loves but I don't like at all.

I have had a small breakthrough recently when I cooked some shrimp
for a friend. I actually thread the buggers on skewers! You have no
idea what a huge step that is for me.

As for liver, I don't like it much except for stuff like liverwurst
or pate.
