Humans have evolved a number of mechanisms to guard against eating natural toxins - first line of defense is smell and taste, second line of defense is gagging, spitting and vomiting response - THIS IS NOT RANDOM!!!! Your body is trying to protect you from the possibility of harmful toxins that you are ingesting!!
If you never liked broccoli or brussel sprouts as a kid, its because you were protecting yourself! And it's a good thing because:
In both vegetables, there is a toxin called allylisothiocynate which is actually toxic for young children!!
There you go mom!! Dad and I weren't picky eaters!! We were just protecting ourselves!!
Isn't that so cool!?......
