I like to have raw spinach in my salad. It goes well with spring mix and Romaine lettuce. However, I do not like cooked spinach. I will hold my nose if I see it. Popeye may have liked it, but it's not for me. What about you? Do you like cooked spinach?

Like you, I can eat raw spinach in my salad but cooked spinach? No way, smelly and slimy. Yuck!

I'm the opposite of you. I don't like raw spinach in a salad but I will eat cooked spinach, especially baby spinach, all day long. I love it sauteed with extra virgin olive oil and chopped garlic. Yum!

There's a huge difference between cooked spinach and overcooked spinach. Don't even get me started on the travesty that's canned cooked spinach.

Canned spinach would be the worst.

Nope, I'm same as you about spinach. I put it in salad instead.

Nope, no, yuck. I don't even like to look at cooked spinach. To take it a step further, I don't even like raw spinach that's gotten a bit wet and is all slimy. No thank you. I will eat just plain spinach salads, though.

I don't like the texture of spinach when spinach touches my teeth. I prefer spinach being blended in juice.

Yes, I like cooked spinach, especially home-grown. The problem is trying not to burn it. I didn't always like it. As a kid I too marvelled at how Popeye could empty cans of that stuff down his throat when it tasted like it did.

I love it. It is a ingredient in many Indian dishes. Good Iron too. But you have it raw...so i don't need to tell you that.
