LOL, my sister insisted that we start juicing carrots and the juice tastes great. One morning I was listening to the news and they reported about the broccoli and I got the great idea of juicing it. OMG! It tasted awful and I said basically the same thing.

None of you have ever had an egg roll? I've never seen one that wasn't stuffed with cabbage.

And if you take sauerkraut on your hot dog, you have just had another serving of cabbage.

You can also add collards and Brussels sprouts to the list. All five of these vegetables were derived from a wild cabbage plant in England.

I've been lovin' broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, collards and Brussels sprouts since I was a kid. Like 'em raw, boiled or sauteed. Have eaten more than my share of each, eat 'em all the time.

Damn near died of cancer in '89...

Go figger...

We have a Boston terrier who takes care of that for us.

Unfortunately, methane doesn't photograph. But it's there. That's why he's smiling.

Broccoli, cauliflower and cabbage (as well as others) are members of a highly nutricious plant family known as cruciform vegetables.

Since I simply cannot palate the bitterness of broc or cauli, it's a good thing I like the cabbage so much: slaw, halupki, haluski, egg rolls, etc. Yum.

The Koreans say that sauerkraut can head off bird flu -- i guess it's good against the Big C as well. That does it! A reuben sandwich a day for me.

Really? Why?

after I had my gallbladder out, the doctor told me to stay away from all of those.

I eat lots of vegetables, and occasionally broccolli, but never in my life have I had brussel sprouts.
