And no, don't say it's delicious with cheese sauce. It's the cheese sauce you're enjoying. It's time we stopped letting this evil brassica take the credit for that dish.

No, beetroot claims that title.

I think you'll find that what your describing is mushrooms.
Tomatoes take the same title in the fruit category.

You're wrong, very wrong. It's like you've never eating the vile thing known as celery Hmm.

I've never understood the issue with cauliflower, but then again I love sprouts as well....

Cauliflower is mostly just boring, although I would never choose to eat it. Mushrooms (although not technically a vegetable) and beetroot are good contenders.

Roasting it makes it taste nice - but roasting makes everything taste nice. Oil....lovely stuff.

Oh yes celery. It holds no relevant place on earth.

I love Brussels and broad beans

Cauliflower is good as a curry with potato.

I hated cauliflower too until I discovered how delicious it was when roasted.

Cauliflower is nice with lemon juice squeezed over it.

aubergine though, there is no excuse for that Envy

runner beans - they can't be roasted, they absorb water and they are ALWAYS stringy. And my NDN give me a daily supply of the bastards (they also give me strawberries though!)

And no one mentions leeks? Slimy , snottery fucking things . And risotto? Pass me that bowl. I'll have all the cauliflower, and your other nasties if you solemnly promise I never have to eat those puke-making dirty evil things(oh, and parsley sauce) EVER again.

Oh no love it. Much nicer than broccoli.

We had leeks last night with a joint and rosemary/garlic tatties. Delicious.

Forgot how lovely leeks are Grin

I can eat cauliflower but I don't see the point of it. It tastes like something grown to feed livestock. Beetroot tastes like earth - you might as well have a spoonful of soil.

Odd snack as a smoking accompaniment, but hey!
