I hated kidneys for a long time because the first time I ate one (served with a mixed grill) I thought it was a mushroom. I love mushrooms and saved it to the end. Put the whole thing in my mouth and it was so much not mushroom that I couldn't face kidneys for years afterwards. I very much enjoy a steak and kidney pudding now though (has to be proper steamed suet pastry).

And I love whitebait!
