I had a cat that had different colored eyes, but, I don't remember ever knowing a person who does, though I know they exist, kinda cool I think...

Food textures - that's a new one on me, but okay.

Also called "heterochromia." I've never known anyone with it either, but I've seen it in pets.

I have a friend who took years to accustom himself to eat oatmeal and rice, and he still won't eat pasta. He also won't eat anything with gravy on it. Apparently that stems from him being served biscuits and gravy when he was a kid and whoever made it scorched it really bad. Now he associates anything with a gravy like texture with that experience.

But I have introduced him to Chinese food, and he has really come to like General Tso's Beef. He told me the other day "Just so you know, that's sauce, not gravy." Okay Johnny boy.

I think it mostly comes from his Mom, who isn't a great cook unless it's basic 1950's meat and potatoes fare. I bet he never had rice or pasta until he was an adult, other than what Chef Boyardee put in his cans.

Most folks grow out of the childhood dislikes. When I was a kid I wasn't really crazy about Lima beans, beets or spinach, but hey, now, not bad at all. Your friend there Tarmac missing out on a lot, we know that but it's okay it's still his call.

See my response to Tarm....lol...there are a couple of things I wouldn't eat when I was younger, and will now...pizza, and chili come to mind, plus, limited cheeses....but, the gross factor still applies, I hate milk always have and a lot of other dairy...I don't think I am missing anything, because they taste terrible to me or make me what to vomit...lol...I also have that super taster thing with bitter tastes...everyone has different tastes and taste buds...it is just weird in my case considering my weight issues...lol
