Hmm...Salmon, definitely. I mean, Gramma used to make Salmon patties,
but I had no idea what just salmon tasted like until I was an adult.
Ditto with most other ocean fish.

Other than that, my folks were pretty adventurous with food. No, wait,
it's not that they were adventurous, it's that Daddy kept killing
things and bringing them home for us to eat! Do you have any idea how
long it takes to eat an entire black bear? The deer and moose always
went fast, but those bears lasted *forever*!

Daddy introduced me to lobster when I was 14, and to escargot when I
was 16...I fell in love with both. (Especially escargot - anything
that requires *that* much garlic is heaven!)
