Bye, bye Broccoli
 

I miss you already, but as I get older my body no longer wants you as much as I do. And so I have to let you go.

Be free my long time Chinese takeaway side.

Take care my caserol buddy

So long, my raw veggie dip friend

I used to love you, but I had to leave you. RIP little green gem.

Huh?

Personal, medical, or environmental ???

Did I miss an e coli scare ?

I think it has more to do w methane production and carbon emissions. Could be wrong.

Broccoli was never my friend, neither were brussell sprouts !

New California law states you are limited to broccoli consumption due to CARB restrictions. By 2025 broccoli will only be consumed as a part of Thanksgiving casserole

It contributes to global warming.

Wife hated brussell sprouts when we met... then tossed some in garlic and olive oil then roasted them in the oven with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese (add bacon bits if you feel naughty).

I still hate brussel sprouts. To me, they are just tiny cabbages, and I hate cabbage.

Just like i hate Brussels itself , i hate Brussels sprouts.

I only go there or eat them if I get payed to do so, and payed well.


People all got antsy when Trump said it's a ****hole, to be honest, that's probably one of the few things he said that are factual and true.

To Speeder's point...

Like Jump'n Jack Flash

So you take a lighter to the farts? That's always good for a laugh.

Lol reminds me of my college roommate.

I completely agree about Brussels, dislike it strongly.

The sprouts are yummy but I need a ten foot perimeter around me after for others safety....

I like broccoli more than I like many of the people who would be O'ffended by the result ;)

Broccoli is not my fav but I truly detest its pigment challenged cousin cauliflower

I’m like broccoli. I same today’s version is a genetic ghosts of the original. It’s so sweet. Chinese broccoli is bitter by comparison.

Brussels are prob closer to the original version no? I love them as well; once I learned how to cook them.

I hate one veg. Lima beans. But I’ve only eaten crappy frozen ones.

My favo-rite dinner veggies besides sweet corn on the cob.
This right here is good stuff.

There are several veggies and fruits I used to enjoy, but I'm unsure if I changed, or what is in the store changed.

Broccoli is one of them.

I also find it difficult to obtain good tasting peaches, plums, and apricots.

Hard t know what should be in green in this thread.

Eventually, it should all be brown.

Post of the week, candidate for other honors!

I’m actually good friends w the Broccoli family. They are the descendants of the Italian farmer who first brought it to America.

That’s the way I remember the story, anyhow. Don’t shoot me if I’m wrong. :)

Rest in Peace....

Broccoli is one of my favs. I don't like peas - English are the worst!

My Doc says it is good for your prostate.

No one else remembers this one?

You have to go to the farm. None of them travel well. They are always picked green and shipped while hard as rocks. Somewhere along the way they “ripen.”
Pluck a warm peach off the sunny side of the tree and mush into it (you can’t bite a ripe peach, it’s too soft). Just slurp it in, let the juice run down your chin, and you have tasted heaven.
Use pretty much the same method to enjoy plums and apricots.

For "some reason" this part reminded me of some of my previous girlfriends.
:p

Wow, I thought you meant the creators of the 007 movies.

I haven’t spent much time in the city, so I wouldn’t know, but I have a great memory of the one time I was there.

I stopped in a little hole in the wall restaurant with 5 or 6 tables. I had a great lunch of white asparagus in butter with a boiled egg, some fantastic fresh bread, and a bottle of cheap white wine. The owner came out and asked me how I liked it. She told me something about how it was some Belgian traditional food - in her Texas accent. She had spent 30 years or so cooking in Texas, said she was on the Bush family domestic staff for a while. Nice lady. Great lunch.

Prufrock is that you?

I love broccoli! However, too much is bad for people with arthritis.

That would be the family. The children of Albert "Cubby" Broccoli are my friends and they told me the farmer/great uncle story. Awesome people. :)

So is jacking off regulary but you don't order that in a restaurant do you?

The Arthritis Foundation says it’s good for OR. There is a lot of conflicting info on line. We just have to pick a source we believe and go with it.

A guy walks into a bar. There’s a sign on the back bar:
“Hand jobs $5
Cheese Sandwich $6”
The barmaid says, “What can I do for you?”
“Wash your hands and make me a cheese sandwich”

Banda Boom. Thank you, I’ll be here all week.
