I too choose this guy’s mom.
Broccoli is so good it makes me horny too. I fucking love broccoli.
But, do you love fucking broccoli?
What happens at the farmers market stays at the farmers market
I’m not kink shaming but if you fuck the broccoli you better not leave it at the farmers market. You take that shit home with you afterwards.
You’re damn right. Broccoli mates for life, not just for Christmas.
Never was a statement more false than this one.
Your statement creates a paradox. You must sacrifice a partition to Windows or risk Steve Jobs visiting you in the night.
I’d rather risk Steve jobs visiting me in the night, much safer option.
Nice to read about a person that so appreciated the kindness of another that they were willing to extend a kindness to them
vegetables in general and tasting bad is moreso lack of preparation/cooking rather than the actual thing itself most of the time. Brusselsprouts is the polarizing one where its seen the most.
It’s because traditionally bitter vegetables have been selectively bred to taste better. The brussel sprouts and broccoli your parents had were very different than what we have today.
Honestly I’m still pretty skeptical of this factoid. The Brussel sprouts now taste pretty similar to the ones I had in the 80s and 90s when cooked the same way. The whole “Brussel sprouts taste new” feels like some industry marketing to me.
Your memory of what something tasted like 30 years ago probably isn’t super accurate. It’s a fact that they’ve been selectively bred over the last few decades to taste better.
I mean wouldn’t that also apply to everyone who thinks they taste better? And why would they have only started trying to make them taste good recently?
If you’ve been eating broccoli throughout the whole selective breeding process, then the flavor change would have been subtle enough that you don’t realize there’s been a change at all. If you ate them side by side, the difference would be noticeable.
It’s not too different from Jim adding nickels to Dwight’s phone, then suddenly removing them.
If something tastes slightly different every few times you have it you’re probably not going to notice a difference over 30-40 years.
Maybe, but brussel sprouts still taste like shit.
Broccoli is and always has been really good, if cooked correctly.
Brussels sprouts in sambar is GOAT tier
Brussel sprouts are so easy to make good as well, just put them in the oven at like 400 with some oil and a bit of salt
Fun Fact, if broccoli kinda tastes like soap to you, congratulations! You have a gene variation that makes certain bitter flavors taste like soap, it’s stronger in childhood (which is potentially why “Kids hate broccoli” trope is a thing) and tends to fade into adulthood, but not always.
There are also studies being done to figure out specifically which compounds in broccoli make it taste like that to cultivate it out to encourage more broccoli consumption
Glad to see some scientific stuff under a “I would fuck his mom for serving broccoli” content.
Are you saying that I might stop hating coriander when I retire? But I really like broccoli, so maybe it’s a different kind of soap gene…
There are just a ton of foods that input in my mouth that immediately make me feel like I’m going to vomit. I really hate it.
Did you get sick a lot as a kid? Like long term, not just related to food?
I don’t think so, no. Why?
I think they’re asking because you can develop taste aversion by eating something and getting sick (even if the sickness is completely unrelated).
My sister got H1N1 when it was proliferating, and she had a box of nilla wafers before the symptoms started hitting hard. Now she inexplicably can’t eat a single nilla wafer.
Ohhh. No, I think it’s because my parents didn’t make me try many foods when I was young and then once they began it was the big ordeal of never letting me leave the table until I tried some. Many times I would wait them out because things just disgusted me that much.
I’d still describe myself as a pretty “picky eater” and I loathe trying anything new in public, but I’ve gotten a lot better and I have pickier friends too now. (It helps not being the most picky lol.)
I hated broccoli as a kid and I still hate it as an adult. It tastes the way farts smell. 🤮
If you ever feel like giving it another go, try roasting it up with the florets coated in some olive oil, crushed garlic, salt, pepper and a bit of smoky paprika if you’ve got it around
I guarantee it’ll at least be the best version you’ve had
Found my dinner tonight. Thanks!
Many years ago my kids pediatrician recommended feeding the kids kale smoothies. I didn’t have any Kale at home so I cooked bunch of broccoli to mush and mixed it with bananas. Those kids eat half a pound of broccoli for breakfast just about every day now. They also eat it raw or crunchy cooked. Definitely the best medical advice I’ve ever gotten and the kids are used to a very simple and quick to make breakfast that keeps them full for hours.
Tldr: Kids constantly surprise me and sometimes they like vegetables.
In what way is „kale smoothies“ a medical advice and why would you designate it as the best, if you didn’t even follow it and used different vegetables?
This comment is so over the top weird, I feel like I missed the joke here.
It’s medical advice because it came from a doctor in a professional setting when we were discussing how to get more iron in their diets since we don’t eat many fortified foods. Kale and broccoli are close enough nutritionally to be swapped if one is just looking for the vitamins and minerals. Lastly, It the longest I’ve ever continuously followed a recommendation and it has made my life way easier. That makes it the best advice I’ve gotten.
Thanks for the clarification!
It reads like a 1 star recipe review
/r/IDidntHaveEggs
No a 5 star “It tastes amazing! I changed everything!”
Same for meatloaf
You wanted to fuck your friend’s meatloaf?
You can absolutely fuck meatloaf
Honestly, I would be suspicious of any kid who doesn’t like eating miniature trees.
well that escalated quickly
You never wanted to fuck your friend’s mom?
I mean… yeah. But after you hit thirty and you can have all the milfs you want. It’s free moms.
Broccoli is like green tofu. It tastes like whatever you cook it in. There is perhaps no other food which has more surface area for holding sauce or seasoning.
Cauliflower
Mandelbrotcolli
Broccoli in Thai curry is the way! So good!
To be fair, everything is good in Thai curry.
Btw, Broccoli is a superfood.
Superfood is a meaningless marketing term. You can call literally anything a superfood and it would be correct.
Bacon is a superfood
Raw potatoes are a superfood
Vodka is a superfood
To be fair bacon, potatoes and vodka are all top-tier.
