While my mum was great at veg, she wasn't so good at things like fish - she was always so petrified she'd poison us by feeding us raw meat and fish that everything was always horribly overcooked. I didn't like fish until I left home and found that when it's not cooked so long it's dried out, it's actually quite nice :dNat said:My mum, bless her, was not very good at cooking vegetables. Or rather, she was too good at cooking them. And cooking them. And cooking them.
Didn't realise I actually liked so many veg until they were cooked properly!
Apparently there's a chemical in Brussels sprouts which is either undetectable or actually liked by many people, but which tastes horribly bitter to others. So if you're one of those people who find them bitter, I can see why you wouldn't like them.scr8pe said:I feel the need to defend the poor sprout. From the birth of time this poor veg has received bad press. I don't understand why any one would dislike such a genuinely individual flavour.
That's because you've got over active sweet buds which are fed by your addiction TrinTrinity said:That's odd because I hated them when I was young...they did taste very bitter, but now I love them...not bitter at all really

No wonder I'm vegetarian!
