I used to hate Brussels Sprouts and refused to eat them. One time my parents, my older brother and I went out to eat before a big football game. And wouldn’t you know it, they served Brussels Sprouts with the meal!
My dad said flat out if I didn’t eat them, we weren’t going to the game. I put one in my mouth and started to chew half-heartdly. Then my brother slapped me in the back and I swallowed it. And guess what. It wasn’t bad at all.
I finished the meal and we went to the game.
My DIL rolls them in oil,puts them on a baking sheet,and puts them in the oven(I don’t know time or temp.)-—they are delicious.

Leave it to Beaver! My mom pulled that crap on me too. I’m sure all the other diners appreciated a wailing 4 year old.
Back OT roasted Brussel sprouts....yum.
Bet your back was sore from your brother having to slap you to get you to eat them all...;-)
