Courgetti and carrotetti or whatever it's called instead of pasta = crap.
Sweet potato fries instead of chips = crap. (Not sure if sweet potatoes are a vegetable, but it's irrelevant. They're still crap.)
Mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potato = crap.
Cauliflower rice = crap.
Mashed celariac instead of mashed potato = double crap.
I'm most outraged with cauliflower. I love cauliflower when it's in its rightful place (on a roast dinner WITH ROAST POTATOES or in a curry), but mash it with sour cream and garlic, and it turns into devil vomit.
I'm not even being unreasonable. Potatoes and pasta and rice are lovely. Carb wish-you-were vegetables are just a huge massive vomity and expensive disappointment.

Oh, bog off.
