As a nation, food is a huge part of our day, but there are certain foods and dishes us Brits avoid from childhood.

Louis Smith MBE has been plucking up the courage to try them again, and his advise to the big kids out there is to never assume that you don’t like things without giving them a go.

A new survey by Blacksticks Blue showed that 60% of adults have gone to extreme lengths to avoid trying new foods, will you be brave and try those foods you've avoided for so long?

If blue cheese is one you avoid, you don’t have to be a chef to give it a go. Try sprinkling it on top of your average meal - it can really bring it to life!
