I hated Liver and Onions

There were two meals popular in our house, liver and onions and mashed potatoes with buttermilk. I couldn't stand either one of them. I was threatened with everything short of horse whipping if I didn't eat them and even that would not have worked on me. They finally gave up trying and Mother would let me eat something else on those days.

One day Dad brought home some Chinese food and Dad and I were the only ones that would eat it. I loved that stuff. One of Dad's friends gave us some wild cherry jelly that he made and I was the only one that liked that, so I had all of it to myself.
