[AyeVickaye]

With a explosion of flavor. Its like a party in your mouth aha Its a light salty taste with chicken flavoring. That shizz is the bizz

[heyo-captain-jac...]

The only vegetable I can't stand is Brussels sprouts. I love everything else.

i Agree
its plain nasty

[tokyo-rose]

except for carrots I dont care for them much.

I like baby carrots.

I love vegetables! Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, zucchini, lettuce, tomatoes (so it's technically a fruit; whatever), potatoes, cucumber, celery, eggplant, bok choy, bittermelon, I like them all.

[none345678]

Cucumbers are love. I eat lettuce and celery sometimes too. And of course potatoes.

[-DressYourEyelid...]

considering i've lived a meatless diet for 3+ years, i sure hope so.
my favourites are asparagus, sweet corn and turnips :)

I agree.

Carrots are only good if they're in soup. Otherwise, .

I love peas and lima beans. Corn on the cob with butter is yummy, too.

Lima beans > ice cream.

Haha, okay then.

I forgot to mention corn, squash, and Japanese pumpkin. The last vegetable is really good.

[nikx618]

YES. i eat pretty much all vegetables
except raw &bitter onions on burgers xP
i love everything else though, aha, but brussel sprouts? i haven't really tried them, so i can't judge.

[lesliehp]

I do. Once you eat healthy and go back to unhealthy it's not the same anymore.

x2 I really dont love carrots, but for some reason i do like baby carrots. Theyre kind of sweeter i think.

I love vegetables. If you don't like them, you need to season them better... it's the seasonings / sauces you use that makes the vegetables taste awesome >.>


Though I could eat raw carrots, cauliflower, and broccoli with ranch dressing

[fainaru]

I don't eat cooked carrots, and I don't eat salads unfortunately, but I like corn, cooked lettuce, don't like broccoli cause I have to eat that boiled so it doesn't taste that great, love cooked green beans, don't like snow peas because usually we get leftovers and they turn yellow-green after, tomatoes are good, cucumber, peppers are delicious, squash is fine with me too.

[superstitious]

Heh. I thought I was a rarity (a vegetable lover who doesn't care for raw carrots).

I love glazed carrots though.

And yes, I eat vegetables constantly. Typically, I eat more fruits and vegetables than anything else. I'm in my early 30's with a dwindling metabolism, so it's pretty much a must.

[sixfive]

Eh I'm young living on campus with a kick ass metabolism and a shitty kitchen, so I don't go out of my way to. I'm not opposed to it though, I love vegetables, notably zuchini, onions, and asparagus when done right. Mostly eat granola, oatmeal, turkey sandwiches on wheat, bagels, and juice.

[none345678]

I used to eat onions raw. I love french onion soup. Hate making it though.

Man, french onion soup, REAL french onion soup with the cheese and the fat crusty crouton on top is goddamn amazing.

Brussel sprouts are AMAZING. You've gotta try them sauteed.

ranch dressing! thats one of the way i get myself to eat vegetables
by having a little ranch dressing on the side

What does Japanese pumpkin taste like?
if there is anyway to describe the taste

[karmakiller]

I'll eat practically any cooked vegetable, but onions have to actually be cooked for me to eat them. The only vegetables that I will stay away from are tomatoes (in culinary terms), cucumbers, and radishes (they taste like dirt).

As far as raw veggies are concerned, I LOVE broccoli, spinach, zucchini, snap peas, green peas (I'll go out an pick them out of the field), alfalfa sprouts, and greens. I'm not really a fan of iceberg lettuce because it doesn't taste good. I don't really care for carrots unless there is dip.


Don't even get me started on fruit, haha.

are you serious?? these are things used to make salads

and i am getting you started on fruits!
what about them?

[karmakiller]

^ No, spinach, baby greens, tango, red leaf, radicchio, broccoli, frisee, sugar snap peas, chopped walnuts, vinaigrette and occasionally mushrooms make a salad :P

I like fruit more than I like vegetables, so my favorite fruits list is really long.

[Harp]

i used to be in love with lima beans...

i like a lot of veggies, i guess.

Phaseolus lunatus is a legume. It is grown for its seed, which is eaten as a vegetable

tbh

what does that stand for>?

[Harp]

to be honest...

[superstitious]

what does metabolism have to do with you eating vegetables??
i am not quite clear on that

Typically, vegetables (without a lot of sauce, butter, etc) are low in fat and calories. Someone with a less active metabolism is less likely to gain weight with a diet rich in fruit and vegetables with a fair amount of exercise.

raw onions??
how does french onion soup taste?
and how is your breath after eating it?

I'm not sure how to describe french onion soup. I'd google it and look at some pictures. xD

i love vegetables. i think the only vegetables that i've come across and didn't like were brussel sprouts. i love mushrooms, carrots, celery, potatoes, collard green, and some others. there are other veggies that i like as accompaniments in/with sauces, soups, etc but not necessarily by themselves.

i don't think anyone likes brussel sprouts
the way it looks just turns me or people away from it

it's not the look for me, it's the taste. they taste rotten.

ooh you have tasted it
well for me i haven't tasted it the way it looks doesn't look right for it to be in my mouth

[smash]

yeah, i ate them once, over a decade ago. i will probably never do it again unless a trusted chef can convince me to do otherwise.

[iExquisite]

^ lol you are right!

Brussel sprouts are AMAZING. You've gotta try them sauteed.

To me, Brussels sprouts have a more intense cabbage-y taste, which is why I like them.

Edit: From wikipedia --

Overcooking releases the sulphur smelling glucosinolate, sinigrin. This is the reason many people profess to dislike Brussels sprouts; only ever having tried them overcooked with the accompanying sulfuric taste and smell.

cabbage?? i sorta like cabbage ... when its cooked and spiced up

[hi-C]

^ Well, then, what you do to cabbage you can do to Brussels sprouts, you just can't cook it as long. My favorite way to prepare any vegetable is to sauté it in olive oil and garlic. I've also had Brussels sprouts roasted, and that's pretty good too, since they get kinda crunchy.

ok cool Thanks for the tips
i will try that

i'm adding cucumbers and cabbage to my list. i sliced a whole cucumber up, sprinkled it with lemon pepper, salt, and chili powder. it was so crisp, fresh, and tart. loved it.

Nice
Cucumbers are great in general even without spicing it up

this is not in anyway to come off as a insult, but do you have some sort of vegetable fetish or something?

ooh no
its just that my mother keeps telling me eat your vegetables daily.. its good for you
and all that junk && i do agree with her
i just wanted to see how many people do eat vegetables and it turns out a lot of people do.. so i guess i should learn something from them

[-DressYourEyelid...]

oh. i see.
darn. it would have been much more interesting if you did indeed have some unquenchable lust for veggies. xD

is squash a fruit or veggie? whichever it is, i love it :)

[Mikeplyts]

yeah, i dont care if its oily.



and if mushrooms are vegetables, i looooove mushrooms. especially button mushrooms

[iExquisite]

^ i have never heard of asian veggies
but the bak choi sounds familiar
but they look like they don't taste good at all but again not all veggies taste good

[Teesa]

i love peas and cucumbers. and broccoli when they're not too hard or too soft. and i like green beans and spinach too.

[hi-C]

I just ate avocado sushi. Avocado should be a fruit, though, since it has that big ass seed.

[Gigi]

omg I LOVE mushrooms with all my heart. I could probably eat them all day, every day for the rest of my life.

I love me some Asian veggies too, pretty much anything except for gai laan, gross.
