I do eat vegetables when I was young but not all veggies. Among my favorites were kangkong, okra and papaya to name a few. But there was a time when I was so hungry that I had no choice but to eat the the only veggie dish that was available. Maybe that was when I got to start eating veggies since I have to choose either I'll starve or eat. I think, as we grow, we mature and we get to decide on which things are which, including our choice of eating veggies.
