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.

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

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

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.

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’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.

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.
