George Bush Sr. famously hated them. For some reason, people found that funny. I didn't get it then and I still don't get it.
They used to taste far more bitter. Then in the late 90s, a breeder was able to remove that flavor.
I liked them bitter.
Cool. But that's also what people didn't like about them.
