Why do so many people hate liver?

Personally liver is one of my personal dishes, but ive seen many people say it's flavor is disgusting and that they hate it.

for me, the weaker point is less about the taste and more about the texture

i quite like liver pate tho <33

I think it's either a cultural thing or just a development issue. I've noticed a lot more people these days are picky eaters and they live off of either junk or plain and boring foods (especially in western worldz). They're also very stubborn and refuse to try new things from what I've noticed. It's also a big upbringing thing. I was always made to try new foods when I was super young and so I developed a taste for everything, unlike families that bring their children up on more 'child appropriate food' such as plain ol chicken and broccoli, instead of steak, oysters and the like.

But I don't mind liver :P 

For me it is largely the texture, I am not a fan of most meat, but biting into liver almost makes me throw up...
While when it's processed into pate or dumplings I can enjoy the taste quite a lot.
Personally I don't understand the hate for spinach or broccoli, or for veggies in general.
