Fresh figs are an acquired taste.

We had 8 very big fig trees at our old house. I would pick them, and throw them in the woods. The old woman next door was aghast, so then I started giving them to her instead. When the guy next door found out, he wanted some too, so that he could make preserves. Through all this, I would taste them from time to time, to see what the big deal was. Yeah, I like fresh figs.
