My most irrational fear is taking a bite of something and it having mushrooms in it
My reply: Me but with onion 😢 I love other vegetables tho
Her: Not you having the palette of a child at your grown age
So can we just agree this is a wild thing to say to someone who has a food intolerance?
For me it's not like "Oh onions are gross." I literally can't be in the same room as a freshly cut onion, and the taste of them makes me gag. I don't understand it, but calling someone a child over it is so immature

She sounds horrible. Block immediately. The association between a "childish" palate and a dislike of a particular food is bizarre and completely asinine. Everyone, regardless of age has food preferences. That is the dumbest shit I have ever heard. FWIW, I know a lot of kids who eat onions and a lot of adults who don't. It has nothing to do with age.

Hearing that from someone who hates a food themselves is insane. She really had no empathy whatsoever. I would wish many mushrooms upon her, but I would rather see that we all one day have our food experiences respected.

Not her not knowing the difference between palate and palette and being a total hypocrite at the same time.

Having an irrational fear of eating mushrooms and then saying they someone that won't eat onions has "the palate of a child" is weird AF.
