I don't hate many foods, but mushrooms ... blech. They taste like dirt.
As far as dislikes go, they are second only to shrimp. That said, I think
my rationale for buying them was it would be good to have some freeze dried

Something to experiment with. My kid won't eat them either, but my dude
loves them so I don't shy away from recipes that contain them. We adapt.
