That'll do it. My mom didn't buy peas except in a can. The first time I
tasted fresh peas (I was out to dinner) I could scarcely believe they were
the same thing I 'hated' as a kid. Although I'd always liked lima beans, I
planted a couple of rows of them in Mom's flower garden and watched them
grow when I was oh, maybe 8. I was fascinated. Probably would have wanted
to taste them if I hadn't already liked them. Of course, not everyone can
grow the stuff they would like their kids to eat.
