I think I've mentioned before how weird my food likes and dislikes are. I like beans but only on toast. I like sandwiches but only if I've made them. And I hate cheese unless it's halloumi (which isn't terribly cheese-like) or served on pizza.
Meanwhile the rest of my family are pizza mad, especially my youngest who would choose pizza over pretty much any other food.
