Broccoli politics

February 25, 2009

Why do  people not like broccoli?

To Adam broccoli is one of the best vegetables. You can eat it raw, cooked in a wide variety of ways, yet so many detest broccoli.

Oh, Adam knows – Dubbya’s Dad did not like broccoli, no that cannot be right because Sasha Obama does not like broccoli and the First Lady thinks she should eat her greens.

This is all such a crock, but food is so political and let us face facts – The One only likes organic rocket.

Food is political because of the Food Nazis.

    Try boiling it for 20 minutes, then you’ll understand why some people dislike it !

    Me, either still a bit crunchy on its own, or with a real white sauce, possibly with cauliflower as well to provide the taste and texture contrast. Roasted is nice as well, or in any stir-fry. It’s OK raw, but I do prefer it cooked, even if only a little.
