Zahra: Even eating it with my eyes closed and holding my nose didn't help.

Mal: That's ok hun. Don't worry about it! I still don't like peas and dread having to eat them. The fact that you were honest and gave it a go is all that counts. Did you know that you will probably love fish when you're my age? Weird how your taste bud change eh.
Looking good Zahra.
