Broccoli Pisses Me Off

Stupid, goddamn broccoli.

OP has stated her boundaries!!

It's VERY good for you.

I agree. She's about to ruin the next Bond movie again.

excellent steamed with a pat of butter and smattering of sea salt. Delish!

Whincing and crying while I chop you up into bits, I can deal with that.

But smelling gassy as I pan fry you with some olive oil and garlic? Now you're just over the top.

Fuck you, broccoli. Fuck you.

My guppies love it. I drop a frozen floret into the tank and they nibble the buds off. Then the snails dissolve the stem.

Clark would never have approved a Broccoli as his co-star in Gone With The Wind.

I know that for a fact.

The most delightful veggie working today.

I don't LOVE broccoli and I don't LOVE the recipe at the link, but it's pretty good (not to mention healthy and cheap) -- you guys should try it.

Why is it ALWAYS the broccoli and NEVER the brussel sprouts? WHY???

The Brussel Sprouts are the most deceitful.

I’ve learned to love broccoli. And spinach. Maybe an age thing but I actually prefer to eat the with salmon or chicken vs the junk I used to eat like pizza, burgers and pasta.

There’s always some bitch at work that heats up some broccoli dish in the microwave... and stanks up the break room for at least an hour.

Sure, r23 and r24, if the broccoli doesn't jump up and knife you in the throat.

by Anonymousreply 25August 7, 2019 1:41 AM

I hear you, r25. Never again will I drive sixty-eight miles to visit that locked up veg again. Cry all you want, Brocc, we're through.

I LOVE broccoli but I must have murdered its dog in a past life because that bitch has it out for me. I can only eat frozen broccoli florets. if I eat fresh- cooked or raw- I get the devil in my belly. painful gas, diarrhea, cramps. fucking broccoli.

Broccoli tries to pretend it's precious like a rainforest, with its hot wavy green arms all up in the sky and waving, saying "Look at MEE, 1990's Madonna, look at me, pay attention to meee."

Who could eat that? I won't eat that.

by Anonymousreply 29August 7, 2019 2:28 AM

I love it sautéed with garlic & oil, in a quiche, in a frittata and in pasta. And broccoli tempura. And mixed vegetables (including broccoli) in either a white sauce or black bean sauce.

That is obviously what the OP is trolling for. To follow up, Barbara Bush said she loved broccoli and would eat George's share.

I'm thinking about growing my own, my garlic is cured and ready to go. Are they doomed to the deer, though? The bunnies are about my limit.

Op, what in the hell is wrong with you? Your hatred of broccoli is weird.

Besides, it’s BEANS that should be burned off the planet.

by Anonymousreply 41August 9, 2019 1:49 AM

R31 YES! Broccoli Rabbe, Broccolini, much better. It's especially good with white beans, garlic, Italian sausage, and red pepper flakes. I only seldomly eat the standard broccoli because it is meant to be good for health, but I always put it with other veg, as I cannot have it on its own.
