Sprouts are ok, but swede, turnip and parsnips - yuk.

Banjo · 21st November 2011, 11:13

Par boiled, drained and fried with smoked bacon - really nice.

I'll eat any veg you put in front of me barring:
The aforementioned and much reviled sprouts
Parsnips and swede (Too sweet)
Kohl Rabi (Not a fan of the texture)

Funny how we all have things we won't eat, eh?....Though I have a mate whose a proper 'fussy eater' and literally lives on kebab and meat feast pizza- anything that could be recognised as a vegetable (fresh or canned) gets avoided....I cooked a rather nice chicken murghi curry on holiday, which he promptly picked out the green peppers and chickpeas from (leaving the meat and onions) as he "Doen't eat green things or veg"

Went with my son to see a talk given by Ray Mears. In the Q & A afterwards a child put up his hand and asked him what the most disgusting thing he has ever eaten. His reply was "That'll be a Brussel sprout"

I'd scoff the lot in one sitting, except the pizza base. Of course though, it would have to be accompanied with chips, oh, and more chips, and a side order of chips... just in case

I reckon some people on here should cut out the sprouts this festive period as they are full of wind already

I shall be out on Thursday night at the Fellows Society evening get together at the Golf Club.
We have a full evening of entertainment including a meal consisting of home made soup and bread roll for starters.
Then Suet Steak and Kidney pie, Mashed potato and..........SPROUTS

Followed with an English Cheese board and Coffee.
Then we get the comedian and the fun begins.
