I am very weird when it comes to food. If I do not like something, I throw a fit like an 8 year old, and then eventually try it again. Just because I did not like it the first time does not mean I will not like it in a different presentation, or prepared by a different person. I used to HATE scallops until I tasted the Chef's preparation of Scallops with Risotto. That is when I realized that it depends on the presentation, technique and cooking time. Scallops should be sweet and succulent and tender. I thought that they were bland and rubbery. I am delighted now when I have the chance to eat scallops again.
