Peas are part of the same family as beans. Do sweat peas taste like “beans”?
I don’t think you have to like the same things I like, but I also don’t think I believe it when someone writes off an entire family of plants. At least all olives are the same species. Legumes have such a huge variety that it’s hard to grasp the idea of disliking them all.
I’m not going to try every variety of bean in the world just to find out there are a handful of beans other than some peas that I might possibly like. Just like I’m not going to try every variety of olive I like just to find out if there’s one I don’t hate.
Why does this even matter to you? You eat what you like and I’ll eat what I like. Notice I haven’t even asked you what you eat and if you told me you didn’t like, for example, fish, I wouldn’t keep pressing you because there are lots of types of fish and you just haven’t tried the right fish and I thought I didn’t like fish so you’re mistaken for not liking fish. Would you enjoy it if I kept pressing you on it or do you think you might consider that rude?
Again, why does this matter to you? Why do you care so much about what a stranger chooses to do? Am I hurting anyone? Am I being highly immoral? What is the deal here?

What part of “almost all” is unclear to you?
I’m sorry, I’m not going to like most beans no matter how hard you try to talk me into enjoying their generally common basic flavor.
That’s because I don’t actually believe they have a generally common basic flavor?
Also, peas and rice are also a perfectly acceptable way to get protein.
I’m sorry you can’t believe that I taste something, but I still taste it whether you believe it or not.
Do you think I’m lying? Why on Earth would I lie about this?
I think you’re mistaken because I was mistaken for most of my life. If you asked me five years ago I’d also say I disliked beans.

Again, olives are all the same species. It’s reasonable to not like olives. (I don’t much like them either, I prefer nut oils)
Legumes are not all the same species, I think it’s reasonable to try other species.
And I just think you might be missing out. It’s sad when people don’t try foods they might like because they think they don’t.

Well like I said, I thought I disliked beans most of my life. I was missing out. All those wasted years!
I care about strangers. That’s all.
