Lots of kids hate bitter vegetables and grow to like them. Some things you’re not wrong about, just early for.

Taste changes with age, and bitterness is the clearest case: children genuinely experience it more strongly, so the dislike was accurate rather than fussy. What shifts later is the palate, not your honesty about it. The same pattern shows up with music, books and people you could not stand at twelve.

Retry something you decided you hated years ago, once, properly made. One vegetable, one album, one subject. Keep the right to still dislike it, and notice how often the verdict has quietly expired.
