Bitter.

Bittersweet. I had fun and sad moments as a child.

hmmm sweet at times and bitter with the bad experiences i cant really remember much of my childhood though.

sweet at times... sour the rest

sweet...

Blood. Do you know how many bumps, bruises, and cuts a boy can get? There wasn't a rock or tree I couldn't climb, a tool in the garage I wouldn't use, a bike I couldn't wreck, or something fragile that I couldn't break. Not to mention all the fights I got into! Ah, childhood! Sometimes I think it was simply amazing I survived! Oh, yeah. Add Fanta Red Creme Soda to the list, along with pecan pie, lemon merangue pie, and ice cream sandwiches.

I... uh... can't honestly think of a way to answer this without sounding perverted. Yes, I'm THAT fucked up.

Sweet mostly but sour at times.

Sweet as a vanilla milkshake :)

Taste like water melon. full of vitamin C :)

Pineapple Sherbet. When I was young my mom, sis and I went to the movies every Saturday..just before we went to the theater, we'd stop off at an ice cream shop across the street from the theater and get ice cream. I remember that I used to love sherbet, especially pineapple. Once I got a 4-scooper! So pineapple sherbet pretty much brings back my childhood! Happy Tuesday! :) ((hugs))

soured grapes

nerds. both sour & sweet..at different times.

Bitter Gourd!

Pancakes with home-made butter and maple syrup. Blackberry jam. Cocoa. Thanks, Mom and Granny....

Licorice! A little bit goes a long way! I had SOME good times, but for the most part ... my good times have been since I've been grown.

Honeysuckle nectar.

Sweet as strawberries and cream yummie :)

like the wind...had many adventures as a kid... :)

The taste of sweet smelling empanadas!

What does molesta...never mind.

My childhood tastes like chocolate ice-cream on a cone with chocolate sprinkles, Sno cones, rainbow cookies and kit kats. Then there came a point where it tasted like rotten cheese and sour apple. But then it got better and started to taste like chocolate ice cream with chocolate sprinkles again. ;0)

Grape flavored Kool-aid. No, really it brings back memories.

Pixy sticks and Good Humor Strawberry ice cream....

Bitter tends to leave a acrid taste in my mouth if i dwell on it too long:-(

Sour. The kind that makes your lips pucker.

It would have to be "Peanut Butter" ... my constant companion and true friend growing up. My childhood would not have been the same without (the taste of) peanut butter! lol.

Swiss cheese.

Bittersweet. Whoops, forgot to put on my emo hat.

Pot roast - That is what I always wanted on my birthday when my Mom would make whatever I wanted for dinner :)

It would taste the way Crayola crayons smell. Add a dash of grape bubble gum, and a little bit of dirt.

Banana slices smooshed on a slice of buttered, toasted French bread. It was something my grandfather came up with and I it takes me back to my childhood every time I make one now:-) Add Belgian chocolate and that's my childhood:-)

Otter pops because those were my favorite treat and I ate them all of the time. I still eat those things alot.

Just had a wonderful time reading all sorts of interesting, poignant, fun and "down memory lane" answers here. So on that basis alone .. thanks for a great time and a great question! :) Going to have to go with a list, I think .. -- my maternal grandmother's "anything" that came out of her kitchen. German. Short, stout and white apron. It was the SMELL that grabbed you, and we all wanted the TASTE .. well .. asap. Main dish to side dishes to relishes to desserts. Breads were always homemade. Oh, that was heavenly!!! No, anything out out of her kitchen was heavenly!! :) -- grew up in the country and we grew lots of different vegetables. So "supper" meant a request to run out back and "get" whatever it was. Green beans or radishes or cucumbers or squash .. or my favorite .. and this is one of my favorite TASTES? Pick then shuck .. fresh ears of corn. YUM. Shoot - and there's still tons more! Remember those big red "fireballs" .. that were white by the time you got the middle of them .. hot at the start? lol Or the taste of 'SAMOREs??? And the tastes at summer picnics where we all knew who would bring what - potluck style - as they were "known for" that dish and we all looked forward to having it! And fireman's carnivals .. and the taste of cotton candy But somehow it's all rolled in together .. from BBQ 1/2 chicken at a community event .. to those ears of corn. Er .. multi-tastes of childhood, I guess! :)

Stuffed shells. I love those pasta things.

something like salsa taken apart each aspect (ingredient) has its own particular dimension; some are bitter, plain, sweet, strong, dynamic... but when you put it all together it's definitely a fiesta :D

sour apples. My childhood was not very happy, but I had a neighbor who let me pick sour apples from his tree. I would take them home and put salt on them...they were so good....a happy memory. The another neighbor had a candy shop and he always gave me candy sour apple sticks to eat. I would hide away in a hidden corner in our front steps and lick and lick until it was gone. Both very happy memories for an unhappy child.
