Many foods take me back down the years of my childhood. I don’t have to eat them to be reminded of how much I disliked them when I was made to eat them.

They are the vegetables I was made to eat when I was a little boy. Seeing them in supermarkets reminds me of how distasteful they were.

White turnips, Swede turnips, Silver beet, broccoli, cauliflower, string beans. I hated them all, more so because I was made to eat them.

Looking at them these days is enough! Yes, they bring back memories of conscription eating.
