Came here to post this.

Zucchini is without question the worst. It has no macro or micro nutritional value, basically no calories, and tastes like bitter cardboard. It's basically not food. Any use for zucchini is better achieved with eggplant, which actually has at least some merit to it.

Fuck zucchini I hate it so much.

I got covid and it fucked with my taste for weeks on end after I recovered. I tried eating a taco and the cilantro was the only part that actually didn't taste like fucking soap. I tried eating steaks and they tasted like fucking soap. All meat just tasted like fucking soap. For three months.

Meat tastes fine again now, but fuck that. I still hate cilantrolets though

Nightshades are also vegetables, although, Zucchini is not a nightshade.

There are legal definitions, biological definitions, and cultural definitions of what constitutes a vegetable. I am not sure why this has to be explained so often to teenagers who have watched some "10 veggies that aren't veggies! you won't believe number four!" videos on youtube made by some idiot millenial without common sense or education.

When talking about cooking, guess which set of definitions make the most sense to use?

It's just a sweet onion cultivar. The ones from Vidalia are distinctly sweet and lacking in pungency because the soil there lacks sulfur. I know because the farmer's markets in that area are staffed with people who really love the only notable thing ever to come out of Georgia's Coastal Plain Region.

Sweet tea is also based, but I do agree that most southerners overdo it. The first time I went over to a friend's house in high school, I saw his mom making tea. The bitch added like 2+ cups of white sugar into the pitcher. It was pure beetus syrup. In my house, the ratio was 1/2 cups turbinado sugar per gallon of tea. The greatest travesty was the lack of lemon wedges to go with that shit.

Also, the most useless veggie for me is easily out-of-season tomatoes. Those fuckers have almost no taste, and they make me very aggro. A close second would be eggplant bc I just really hate that shit no matter how many times I try and eat it.

"In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering."
Pretty well defined, meaning part of the sugarcane we eat is not a fruit, parts of tomatoes/eggplants/peppers/pumpkins we eat are fruit, and stuff like part of the strawberry we usually call fruit, isn't the fruit (nor are strawberries berries).
"The strawberry is not, from a botanical point of view, a berry. Technically, it is an aggregate accessory fruit, meaning that the fleshy part is derived not from the plant's ovaries but from the receptacle that holds the ovaries. Each apparent "seed" (achene) on the outside of the fruit is actually one of the ovaries of the flower, with a seed inside it."
But most here just think in culinary terms which are historical and very badly defined, which leads you to retarded conclusions such as "part of the sugarcane we eat is both a fruit and a vegetable at the same time".
