Saturday Controvesy

[Dotsie]

HEY Trish, shall we work on a trebuchet to try and fling buns? hmm, could be a bad idea, in order to get there, they would have to go very high and freeze or become meteors on re-entry. Could be fun tho.

Why don't we fling cabbages? By the time they re-enter the atmosphere frozen, we will have created a "green" and environmentally-friendly ballistic missile that we can then sell to the Pentagon for untold riches.

No! Send buns

I thought I'd read this thread to find out what happened on Saturday that was so controversial.

As it is, I find that the matter is a discussion. Excellent.

I've got a train to catch.

If we're talking about veggies, I hate sprouts, cabbage, turnip, cauliflower, broccoli, daikon (if you get it outside of Japan), and beetroot makes me physically sick!

I saw a program recently on American TV showing that there's a flavour in greens that some people react to much more than others. They are genetically opposed to it from genes that they inherit from their parents. So if your parents give you a hard time about not eating your greens - blame them!

I found the show - here it is.

...and celery, cucumber and eggplant (I can't spell aubergiene) - Yuk!

It must be genetics.

I DO blame my maternal ancestors for my not being able to eat sprouts and most leafy greens come to that, as they all followed the practice of cooking them for at least 40 mins (and yes, the same for cabbage even though they barely need 2 mins cooking in normal kitchens) and adding bicarbonate of soda to the cooking water 'to keep them green' To this day on the odd occasion where I'm backed into a social corner and can't 'not' eat sprouts as it might cause offence, I have to cut them up into small enough portions to not have to chew as well as swallow - so the horrid little balls of pus (which is how I think of them even if they're cooked properly) literally spend as little time as possible in my mouth. If I don't then my tongue takes charge and ejects the horrid things My housemate loves them so I actually cook them for him, but I never eat them myself even though I quite like the smell of them raw now I'm adult enough to overcome my repugnance to actually tolerate prepping them.

To be fair to mum the excessive steaming time and especially the bicarb thingie seems to be the favoured cooking method of vegetables except curiously, potatoes in the south-west...

Exactly! You still like them! Maybe one day, poor Chris

I used to work with a chap who weighed about 350 pounds and could fart on command. He could clear a football field ( american or other ) literally, and my Gawd the Hang Time... Gah! And, it was always some other bloke asking him to do it. Well, unless he really took a shine to ya.
