NAY, Nay, nay!
The obscene word sends chills of horror down my spine. :mad:
The revolting sight of them photographed brings back memories of the vile taste I last encountered as a 4 year old. :mad::mad:
Truly the very worst of green veg. :mad::mad::mad:

parsnips are disgusting

Parsnips are scrummy if you roast them in the oven with the potatoes

And to answer the question
I love sprouts. But only if they are boiled to oblivion. The mushier the better. Can’t stand them if they’re slightly crisp
And as leftovers, Chuck them in a frying pan with a bit of butter and pieces of bacon. Then mix with leftover mash and shape into cakes. Fry in a little butter til brown and cover with gravy. Yum!!

Sprouts are awesome :gah: Had some for dinner tonight :woo:
although I don't understand the obsession with having them with bacon...that's just odd :s-smilie:


the bacon thing. is like. once a year for christmas :yep: not every time :yep: for me. it stems from my german family and doing german christmas meal on christmas eve. :yep: And there was a dish which had bacon and green veg. idk what. we will have to wait till the 24th to see what my aunt rustles up :holmes:
Very much yay -

They don't taste good though.. but they taste of christmas, which is mainly why I like them.

Back when I lived in the UK me, my mum and my grandpa would all grow them throughout the year, and then see who had the best ones at christmas.

They have a well-known side effect.


Tip: don't buy them frozen

Nope. I hate them. They are revolting. Might have something to do with the sprouts my grandfather used to cook. They were grey.
