    I think it's fairly common to dislike raw celery.

    Put peanut butter in the crack and then it becomes a delicious snack.

    "Celery tastes like water" is somwthing people only say because they heard other people say it. It clearly does not

    I don't know if I would call it spicy, been a long time since I had just celery though. But I am really sensitive to the taste of it.

    Even if you chop it up small and cook it into something, for me it ruins a meal and gives it this horrible aftertaste. Probably best described as puke, that kinda acidic taste

    I'm seconding what that other person said. You might have oral allergy syndrome.

    Fun fact; that's how I found out I have oral allergy syndrome. I asked a friend how so many people can ignore the way bananas burn like that and apparently, they don't.

    Celery is like the opposite of acid or burning or spice. It's green and water.

    Rhubarb: now when you bit the water with hair in it, it tastes sour.

    My sole reason for wanting to try rhubarb pie is because of people who've had rhubarb saying how sour it is. I fucking love sour stuff, and celery. So hells yeah I want some rhubarb. I never see it around here though 😬

    This is only true of the celery you find in grocery stores.

    Grow some in your garden, you’re in for a world of flavor you never knew existed

    I "peel" celery like how I peel a potato. So basically peel off the stringy part. Then I cut them diagonally or at a 45° angle. I then stir fry them with carrots and string peas and baby corn and shallots with some garlic and salt.

    It's so crunchy and fresh tasting.

    Damnit I wish I had some good shit to flavor my stew with.

    And have it taste like eating shampoo or some other chemical soup not to be left within reach of children.

    Growing your own celery is a game changer. Most produce we get in the store is hopelessly bland.

    Celery loses most of it's flavor quickly after harvest. When it's actually fresh it's extremely tasty.

    The smell of raw celery makes me nauseous, especially when cut. Cooked in things I find the texture off-putting and tasteless, compounding the unwanted crunch added to something that shouldn't crunch.

    Even Doctor Who doesn't like it, and he wore celery as a brooch for years.

    cut celery into large chunks, put some olive oil, pop it into the oven and take it back when it starts to char and soft. mix it with mushroom saute (and stir fried beef if not vegetarian)
