Hey, some of us enjoy Brussels Sprouts!

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.

A former co-worker of mine referred to Brussels Sprouts as little green nuggets of nastiness.

I love Brussel sprouts. Think I am the only one in my family. Kinda reminds me of my late mom's cooked cabbage. That's just my opinion.

Originating from the Mediterranean, when in their caterpillar state, the insects can devastate crops and target green leafy vegetables. They have arrived on UK shores in their tens of millions earlier this year – hundreds of times more than ever before.
Guess that Brexit came a bit too late for that one....

NOOOOOOOO! Those little sprouts are so adorable. As a kid they remind me of Babies Cabbages, but also they remind me of those Pods from Invasion of the Body Snatcher LOL. Sheesh even prices for Brussel Sprouts are going up.

Lorianne :" And now there are fears the insect – also known as a cabbage moth – could wipe the traditional trimming off the festive menu .."
Obviously, the Brits don't use Bacillis Thuringiensus , an naturally ocuring bacterial disease that gives the cabbage looper and moth a terminal bout of the flu.

They are awesome when fried in butter. They are horrific when boiled.

Shouldn’t that be “illegal alien moths” ???

I planted four stalks in my garden for the first time this summer. They led to Trumps election in Wisconsin. They were delicious.

My whole family loves them. I indoctrinated the younger ones by calling them tender juicy baby cabbages.

Our kids gobble Brussels sprouts with passion. Steamed with cheese sauce.
