Why is there so much hate for this stuff? It tastes delicious, is extremely nutritious and looks like cute little trees? What's not to like?

I don't, I know my mum cooked chicken dry and boiled vegetables too mush, I just don't tell her that because in the back of my mind even though I never think about them, the beatings still affect me.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 22 11:24:57 2019 No.13253645 Toss with olive oil, salt and pepper, some garlic, then roast in the oven. Delicious.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 22 11:26:04 2019 No.13253650 >>13253645 No. Just do butter + salt, and move on with your life. It's only a side dish.

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 22 11:30:23 2019 No.13253668 >>13253645 Just blanch it water for about 1 min or so, remve before the colors go dull and before it loses its crunchiness. Olive oil/garlic oil if you made any, salt, done.

Because a vegetable is not a vegetable. The taste depends on how it's produced. It's fully understandable people don't like mass produced broccoli from for example Spain. Well produced broccoli is a whole different thing and is so good you can eat it raw.

I love it. Full of nutrients and provides much needed fiber. I break em down into smaller chunks, steam and then throw em in a lil neckbeard delight of a stirfry, butter, salt, spicy chicken, brown rice, water chestnuts etc etc. Makes the meal at least provide adequate protein, complex carbs, healthy amount of fat and a ton of fiber. Just make sure to chew it and drink plenty of water and next time you take a shit youll know wat im talking about. Its a marked quality of life increase.

I get frozen broccoli because I'm poor, but I drop it in a pan with some oil, garlic and crushed red pepper (I add it with the garlic to infuse into the oil), then add with a little water and chicken boullion to steam it down. This also works with just about any other frozen veggie too, toss in some pasta or rice if you'd like.

When making stir fry with of course organic vegetables I find the broccoli to be the star of the vegetables. I like to make sure that the broccoli is a flavorful with the soy sauce but also a bit firm but also soft. Tastes amazing

When I hear people complain about the taste of veggies I'm reminded of a friend of mine who hated chicken because her mom would cook it until it was dry and flavorless. When I made chicken for her she loved it.

Some idiots boil food until all the taste is gone, which tends to happen most often with vegetables. Personally I like to stir fry broccoli with a bit of lemon juice, really enhances the flavor.

It's from cartoons. Oh brocolli and vegetables??? Kids haaaate brocolli and vegetables, right kids? Right, gross.

It's not real. Most people like vegetables especially with butter or oil.

It's all just leftover memes from cartoons. Every now and then a kid might think it's gross or some failure might "not eat vegetables", but it's not a real thing.
