What are some things you wanted to eat lots of as a kid, but now you don't care?

I remember being a kid and wanting to eat an entire port wine cheeseball (you know the reddish-orange ones covered in chopped nuts) but wasn’t allowed more than a couple of swipes on a cracker, because that cheeseball was for company. We only ever had them when we had company.

As an adult, I like those port wine cheeseballs just fine, but I think I’ve never bought one just for myself. I don’t think I could eat that much cheese in 2 months, and I’d probably be sick of that particular kind pretty quick if I ate large quantities of it.

When I was little I would have loved to have eaten a whole box of chocolates in one sitting, but was never allowed to because “it will make you sick.” Now, I don’t want to eat a whole box in one sitting. I love savoring them one at a time over many days.

What are some foods that you really wanted to eat a lot of when you were a kid, but maybe weren’t allowed to because it was bad for your teeth, only for guests, was too expensive to acquire with just your allowance, or maybe something like caviar, that adults were always saying was such a delicacy and only for adults? Then, when you became an adult, you really didn’t care one way or the other.
