Eh, I grew up in a part of the midwest where, back in the day, everybody hated strong flavors. I even have a friend who, to this day, says "cheese should be orange" and refuses to eat anything else.
When I went through the "adventurous" period of my life, I really wanted to like it and all sorts of other disgusting things that lots of people like, like macrobrews. Forced consumption does not equal enjoyment.
