No, I just don't like the taste of them. One of only two foods I simply cannot eat, the other being mushrooms.
Brussel sprouts do not have an overpowering taste like some foods though. They lend themselves well to being cooked in a variety of ways. I'm not one for forcing foods on other people if they've earnestly tried them and not enjoyed them, but I feel like most people I speak to have had regular boiled/overcooked sprouts once and decided they're terrible when that would be the equivalent of me burning a steak and slathering it in ketchup and then swearing off of eating it ever again.
