I used to babysit a lot, and I was kind of famous for getting kids to try foods they normally wouldn't. I was never pushy about it, just included them in the shopping/harvesting/cooking process, and asked them to try a little bite of everything, and to remember that your tastebuds change as you age, so keep on trying stuff.
This backfired on me occasionally though. Once as an adventure, we went to a Japanese restaurant, and I ordered the kiddos some Katsu (who doesn't love something fried with dippy sauce), and got myself a plate of sushi rolls and sashimi. Well, since I always asked them to try one bite of something new, they looked at me expectantly, so I let them try a bit of each. Turns out they were all in for sushi, and those little nerds ate most of my plate, and then they always wanted to go. Kids, I don't have sushi money every day!
"Clarence Thomas, who penned a solo concurrence demanding a radical move: The Supreme Court, he argued, should overrule every precedent that limits gerrymandering — including the landmark cases establishing 'one person, one vote' — because it has no constitutional power to redraw maps in the first place.

Have y'all ever had someone act like you were hurting them somehow by just liking a food?
Any time I buy or make kimchi, my Mom says it's so gross and she doesn't want any and just on and on. I never offer it to her, or make group food with it, but for some reason she seems offended by it, and I don't know why.
I find it interesting that people like to ASSUME the DOJ is trying to appear impartial, apolitical, since it clearly looks like THE OPPOSITE. So much wishful thinking around here.
"In a report Tuesday, States United Action — a group that goes after election deniers — found that almost one-third of Congress members supported, in some fashion, Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results."
"...including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-F:), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) and Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC). And House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), the AP reporters note, 'helped organize Trump's failed legal challenge to Biden's win.’ “
"Sperm counts in men have been falling for decades, with chemical pollution such as pesticides implicated by many studies. Microplastics have also recently been discovered in human blood, placentas and breast milk, indicating widespread contamination of people’s bodies. The impact on health is as yet unknown but microplastics have been shown to cause damage to human cells in the laboratory.”
