What is your favorite and least favorite vegetable?

[DemBones DemBones]

I have a hard time picking just one fave but I'll go with broccoli because it's so damned nutritious and so damned good.

My least fave is easy: turnips. But I love turnip greens. How can something so good be attached to something so bad? :shrug:

1. Favorite: asparagus or rutabaga. Least Favorite: Ronald Reagan

[DemBones DemBones]

2. ROFL. I really like asparagus, too,

never had rutabagas. I think turnips and rutabagas were the only vegetables my mom didn't cook.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

3. Okay, here goes:

Favorite--Fresh crisp peas, straight out of the pod. I loved going through my dad's garden and picking off the pods and opening them right up.

Least favorite--Zuchini, makes me gag for some reason.

[HopeHoops]

7. Asparagus, Asaparagus. Ah Sweet Asparagus. - We have a poetry book by that title.

Asparagus by far is my favorite - and our patch is coming into its third season so we can start snipping! :toast:

Least favorite is easy - Pithy pink "I wish I could pass myself of as a tomato" cellulose balls. I'm not sure what to call them or even how they are classified. They are at least passed off as a vegetable. :puke:

[Arugula Latte]

8. Favorite: tie between asparagus and green beans

Least: Beets

9. first off regarding turnips

i hated them for the longest time. my parents would just boil, and then mash them. hated them but had to eat them. my wife now bakes them in the oven and i love them. go figure.

[MrsBrady]

10. there's not much I don't like

I can even handle beets.

but just can't do brussels sprouts.

some greens are too bitter, but I like most.

Kale is inedible to me, which is unfortunate.
It's the most nutritious thing on the salad bar, but it's also the decoration.
:shrug:

[DemBones DemBones]

13. In my family, you had to eat the kale, the Brussels sprouts, the

beets, the greens, whatever, so I learned to eat them and when I grew up I learned better ways to cook them and now I really enjoy them.

[grace0418]

35. Yes, kale is wonderful cooked with garlic, olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Brussels

sprouts are wonderful roasted. Both are great in soup. You just have to find the right preparation.

11. Where are the Reagan jokes?

Surely there will be Reagan jokes.

I like most vegetables, so I don't have an answer, just a lame joke.

[tanngrisnir3]

12. Where did you go to observancy college?

[jobycom]

14. Egads! I read two-thirds of your post. That last third was a killer!

:rofl: :blush: sorry.

[bif]

15. Fave: roasted cauliflower Least: okra

Okra has the consistency of snot to me.

[DemBones DemBones]

17. My grandfather always said he couldn't

keep his socks up if he ate okra. :rofl:

Fried okra is really good but most anything is if you bread it and fry it.

[Genevieve]

18. Okra's a fruit.

A disgusting fruit.

19. fave: asparagus, summer squash. Least favorite: sweet potatoes nt

[Akoto]

20. Favorite: Potatoes. Least Favorite: Onions.

I love potatoes. Doesn't matter how you make them, I'll eat 'em. I'm pretty partial to mashed or fried, though.

As for onions, well, they're hard for me to enjoy. I'm terribly, violently allergic to them! :)

[MorningGlow]

21. Favorite: corn, potatoes, zucchini and tomatoes from my garden

Least favorite: okra. I can't even stand the sight of its gooey innards.
:puke:

[nickinSTL]

22. favorite...broccoli least...onions

I HATE onions. Disgusting things - can't imagine why anyone would want to eat something that tastes so bad...and they put them in EVERYTHING! :puke:

I like broccoli a lot, but also like brussels sprouts...and cauliflower...and cabbage...mmmm...

[Lyric]

23. Favorites: potatoes, tomatoes, green beans, broccoli

24. Is cilantro a vegetable?

Tastes like chlorine to me.
I've read it's a genetic thing.

Most favorite?
I guess spuds, in all their forms.
Baked, fried, boiled, mashed, hash browned.
How many other veggies can you do that with?

[Dangerously Amused]

[surrealAmerican]

32. Mine:

favorite: artichokes, especially the small kind when I can get them (the big ones just have more parts you can't eat).
least favorite: cooked cauliflower. I like it raw, not cooked.

[Zavulon]

33. Favorite: corn. Least favorite: lima beans.

[grace0418]

34. Asparagus and kale are my faves. Bell pepper is my least favorite because I'm allergic

to it. Otherwise I like most veggies with the right preparation.

[iamjoy]

36. Yellow Squash

worst. vegetable. ever.
It even sounds horrible - squash. Like something you do to a mosquito.


Most other vegetables even if I don't particularly like them I will eat them if they are prepared certain ways, or mixed in with other things. But crookneck squash :puke:

Broccoli is probably my favorite. It's pretty tasty and very nutrient dense. I don't count potatoes or corn as veggies - those are starches.
