The most disgusting food for many of us is the one that we remember from childhood. Someone ran into her in a kindergarten, a school cafeteria or at a grandmother in the village. Unfortunately or fortunately, there was a lot of useful things in that very nasty food.
1. Semolina
If in kindergarten there was semolina for breakfast, then for many of us the day was ruined in the morning. Nasty lumps, yellow streaks from butter, and all this made me finish eating.
However! Semolina porridge is a healthy product. It even appears in the diet of people after gastrectomy (those. when the stomach is completely removed).
In the kindergarten, they made us porridge made from wheat semolina. Now in stores it is easy to find semolina from durum wheat varieties. It contains more protein and complex carbohydrates, which during the day will be spent on vigorous physical activity, and not turn into fats. In addition, complex carbohydrates do not raise blood sugar levels, which is very important for people with diabetes.
2. Fried / boiled onions
Many children carefully pick out onions from fried potatoes, soups and other dishes. Even in adulthood, some still read the composition on semi-finished products (e.g. frozen cutlets) and see onions there in second or third place - they refuse to buy.
Fried and boiled onions are unpleasant for them mainly because of their appearance or tactile sensations (slimy, sticks to teeth). And if the onion is required for the dish, then its opponents prefer not to cut it into small pieces, but grate the onion on a grater. For a long time, tearfully, but in the dish it will not be visible.
However! I think there is no point in writing about the benefits of the bow. Everyone knows that this is a useful product. I will only note the fact that during long-term storage, onions do not lose their vitamins, in particular vitamin C.
At the end of the article, I attached a link to the material about the onion peel decoction, where I analyzed in detail its benefits for hair.
3. Braised cabbage
Not the most pleasant smell of a school cafeteria. How many hated the smell of sour hodgepodge (not soup, but a simplified version of stewed cabbage with meat). They definitely won't like German food :-)
However! Braised cabbage is a low-calorie dish, which is decent in vitamin B2 (without it, you cannot normalize energy metabolism), antioxidants, and normalizes bowel function. If the elderly add stewed cabbage to their diet, they will save the budget for trips to the gastroenterologist.
4. Jelly
Jellied meat is also recognized by many as disgusting food. In aspic, the children carefully poked around, because they did not like cartilage in grandmother's jellies, the pork skin was almost hairy. And if there were chicken paws in the jellied meat, then even having matured, people still turn their nose from everything aspic.
However! Aspic is a whole storehouse of amino acids and micronutrients. Now in the west, athletes (especially for powerlifters and weightlifters) bone broth is in vogue. I have a separate material about the benefits of gelatin, the link is attached at the end of the article.
5. Milk soup
Just a champion of "disgusting" among other dishes in kindergartens. The milky film on the soup was especially terrible.
However! Milk soups were included in the dietary table No. 8 according to Pevzner. And this is one of the founders of gastroenterology and dietetics back in the days of the Soviet Union. Diet table number 8 was recommended for obese people.
