What vegetable is getting on your nerves?

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

Zucchini (Yellow or Green) is really beginning to PISS me off.

I can't stand on my roasted veggie sandwiches, or in salads, or all jullianded (sp?) up

:mad: :nuke:

argh...

anyone else getting mad at a veggie?

1. GWB

2. Brussels sprouts.

They look like tiny alien brains.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

4. totally!

i bet they really are, and the produce farmers of America don't want us to find out

[kick-ass-bob]

5. I've never seen alien brains!

So that's what they look like!

[charlyvi]

11. Yep.

It's a scientific fact!

[demnan]

3. The skinned parsnips in a glass of water in my fridge

I mean they've been there for a week and I still haven't boiled them up!

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

7. I bet they're pretty cold in there

no skin in almost freezing water brrrr :scared:

they'd love a nice boil

[MsAnthropy]

6. There's no excuse for cauliflower

it's like eating wet kleenex. Just makes me mad.

[MadAsHellNewYorker]

9. i usually describe it as wet cardboard

its like the "washed-out" version of broccalli

8. I have never liked olives

And I don't understand the point of them. Green or black. They just piss me the hell off and sicken me - especially the black ones, which look like stinkbug body parts when put on a pizza.

10. they smell like stinkbugs too!

i dont mind them in my martinis, but on pizza or salad, no thanks!

[TlalocW]

15. What's funny is that there was a comic

Probably "Shoe" - the one with the birds, I remember the characters were birds - where some of them had ordered a pizza, and they were looking at it, and one was saying, "Oh, gross! We told them no olives on this!" The other one replied, "Wait, it's okay. Those are the stinkbugs we ordered."

So we apparently are not the only ones who feel that way. Maybe it was the Far Side, now that I think about it.

14. Dammit! You people always beat me to the good jokes.

:evilgrin:

13. What's the deal with artichokes?

That seems to be a trendy ingredient for a lot of dishes in restaurants I'm going to lately. I'll be looking at the menu, and the appetizer spinach dip or the chicken special starts to sound reeeeallly good, until they tell you about the artichoke hearts. Yuck!

And why do they only use the hearts? What happens to the rest of it?

:shrug:

[TlalocW]

17. They have a Thugee

Ripping out the hearts in the back of the restaurant. Just like in Indiana Jones 2.

They put the artichoke in front of him; he reaches in and pulls out the heart, and says, "Say hello to Kali... IN HELL!" Puts the heart in a container and continues.

[Mr. McD]

21. Beets, never liked them.

Never will.

[Jessica]

22. Grrrr - I hate when those are on my salads!

The beet juices run all over the plate & contaminate the good stuff. x(

[charlyvi]

23. Rutabagas (sp?)

They taste liked dirt....and they're ugly too.

[Butterflies]

24. Green and red peppers have always irritated me

they keep sneaking into my microwavable meals.

[man4allcats]

25. Well, as a matter of fact,

that cabbage in the White House is really pissing me off.
