Who likes sprouts?


I only have them at xmas and will only eat 2 or 3.


The baby ones are ok but the bigger ones are too strong in taste.


Who eats them on a regular basis?

Me too. I love cabbage. My nephew smothers cabbage in vinegar but I like a little pepper on mine. I think it's called savoy cabbage the one I like, it's very dark green and crinkly...very good for you.

I love red cabbage but no other kind - oh, except in coleslaw.  I hate sprouts but always feel obliged to eat a couple at Christmas for some reason.

I think we've had this one before.  There is a gene that determines whether you like sprouts or not.  Incidentally, I love em.  In Nottingham they are known as knobby greens.

I like sprouts but they have to be cooked very carefully...I hate them crunchy and I hate them when they go pale green and are squishy...somewhere in between is just about right..

Sprouts have such an unfortunate effect on my digestion.

I haven't tried sprouts, they just seem to have a bad reputation!

Let me get this right Chocolate Chick - you've never eaten a Brussel's Sprout?
