Skunk cabbages are traditionally hated by children across the western world.
Even if you try to disguise them with cheese sauce or a cuter name.
My kids loved them; we called them something else
The sprouts were: "Monster heads"
and the cheese/hollandaise sauce was :"blood"
They were eaten pretty quickly by the kids - I think it might have just been the sauce (?)..
As an adult, I enjoy split Brussel Sprouts sauteed with cooking small cut bacon pieces, and small slices of onion, with 'Mrs Dash' seasoning, or a little garlic powder.
Brussel Sprouts, cabbage, kale, and other members of the cruciferous family are natural food sources for calcium in the diet; they are especially good for bone density loss/aging.
The real skunk cabbage and Brussel sprouts have nothing in common. If you were ever near a real skunk cabbage, you would know how it got its name.
I happen to like Brussel sprouts, though I avoid getting near skunk cabbage for obvious reasons!
