For stuff that's neat. Neat article? Neat video? Neat pic of a bug you saw? All good. Neat meme? Ehhh... take it to the meme subs.

Rules

  1. Don't be an asshole. If you're reading a comment you're about to make and think "Hmm... this sounds like the kind of comment an asshole would make" then do not make that comment. Yes, even if the other person "started it". The report button is your friend.

They're so good if cooked well. Roasted with garlic and olive oil

I made the mistake of doing this at a family supper (they normally steamed them), and ended up on sprouts cooking duty for the rest of my foreseeable future lol.

Balsamic vinegar is an amazing addition as well.

I never minded them as a kid but they weren't the best. The newer varities are quite nice. Love them roasted or broiled!

We've been deep-frying them with pumpkin seeds. Add dried cranberries, goat cheese, and a vinaigrette... I am drooling just typing this

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Goat cheese makes almost everything better!

No, I do not hate them - quite the opposite. Pliny the Elder knew what was up, BRASICA CULT FOR LIFE.

Ahh, I thought my tastebuds just got dull with age!

Don't burst my bubble now!

And it still tastes fucking awful. Yes, I've had them roasted, yes from great kitchens.

No, they're not tasty.

"No, these are less shitty."

They're still shitty, just less.

Ah, I was wondering if my wife had an account on here. Hi honey!

[–] PhoreTwunny@lemmy.world -2 points 4 days ago

Nope, still taste like farts

I've only ever had the modern version. Not really a fan. I suspect I would've preferred the more bitter variety.
