I too choose this guy’s mom.
Same for meatloaf
You can absolutely fuck meatloaf
well that escalated quickly
You never wanted to fuck your friend’s mom?
I mean… yeah. But after you hit thirty and you can have all the milfs you want. It’s free moms.
There are just a ton of foods that input in my mouth that immediately make me feel like I’m going to vomit. I really hate it.
Did you get sick a lot as a kid? Like long term, not just related to food?
I don’t think so, no. Why?
I think they’re asking because you can develop taste aversion by eating something and getting sick (even if the sickness is completely unrelated).
My sister got H1N1 when it was proliferating, and she had a box of nilla wafers before the symptoms started hitting hard. Now she inexplicably can’t eat a single nilla wafer.
Ohhh. No, I think it’s because my parents didn’t make me try many foods when I was young and then once they began it was the big ordeal of never letting me leave the table until I tried some. Many times I would wait them out because things just disgusted me that much.
I’d still describe myself as a pretty “picky eater” and I loathe trying anything new in public, but I’ve gotten a lot better and I have pickier friends too now. (It helps not being the most picky lol.)
Well, german but Broccoli and cauliflower with breadcrumbs and butter. Grandma always made this, which is why i liked it as a kid.
broccoli is like anal sex… if you’re forced to have it as a kid, you’re not gonna like it as an adult
This checks out but dude you need Charter.
Holy shit
This is awful lolol
This is a relatable comparison
I guess I should be happy I like broccoli. Here I always thought people just didn’t care for the smell, like brussel sprouts and anal apparently
Broccoli tossed in olive oil, cooked in an air fryer until crispy and then sprinkled with course salt. Delicious 👌🏼
You forgot garlic. Copious amounts of garlic at every step.
I thought broccoli only got softer when cooked. Does this work if you don’t have an air fryer and you fry it in a pan?
Now I’m wondering what would it would taste like to marinade broccoli in butter and garlic then took them out and put them in a dehydrator to make them into chips
Air fryers are just convection ovens. Its baking it.
Air fryers are closer to impingement ovens than convection (fan-forced) ovens.
They are actually different, but it’s based on locations and how/when they circulate air.
This may be an interesting read… Or not, fuck all do I know about what you enjoy haha
That page is giving me a 403 message
Strange 403 is access denied I believe. If your using a VPN maybe change to another location. I’m in the U.S. Switched mine to the UK and France and both worked. I use Spain a lot do to their laws on Piracy. (Legal unless used for profit)
Just cut into bite size pieces, toss it in oil, salt and pepper it, put it on a baking sheet and roast at 425 for around 20 minutes. Don’t fry it in a pan. It will be delicious
This is the way, never liked broccoli until I learned to make it like this. I love adding different seasonings too depending on the flavor profile of the meal - curry and ginger powder for indian dishes, cajun seasoning if you like spicy, or garlic/lemon/italian seasoning.
So going to try that!
My recent go to ( not broccoli though) is toss some fresh spinach in a pan with oil and hit it with lemon pepper seasoning and a little lemon juice.
Takes like 5 including prep if you don’t mind the stalks.
Do people not like spinach stalks? It’s like my favorite part… adds a tiny bit of crunch/texture.
Your recipe sounds really good as well. I’ll definitely give it a try
Fun fact: Brocollis is the ‘veg kids don’t like’ in Amercia mostly. Pixar even edited scenes in ‘Inside Out’ where a dad feeds his daughter broccoli, turing it into bell peppers for the asian market:

Broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans we (brother and I) were always fine with as kids. It was the asparagus and spinach I never cared for as a kid. Turned out it wasn’t the spinach’s fault, my mother would just buy bags of frozen spinach, put it in a microwave safe container and turn it on. So if tasted bad. As I learned to cook I started to like it as I actually used it in other ways. Asparagus though… I rarely give a chance, and usually if I do I’m frying it in bacon grease which defeats the purpose of eating a vegetable I feel.
I only like raw asparagus. If it is cooked, it tastes nasty as hell
Never had it raw, thanks for the tip. I’ll give it a try
This shows some really nice attention to detail.
The “kids don’t like broccoli” has a scientific reason. Kids have a lot more receptors for aromas tasting bitter (10 to 15k different chemical compounds taste bitter to them) which reduce to 5k or less when growing up. So some types of food that adults can eat without problems because they lack the receptors have bitter and vile flavours for kids.
I always assumed this is also why adults love disgusting cheese (I do to a degree as well nowadays). We just lost our sense of taste and call it refined taste.
The “losing taste” is actually a beneficial thing. Most things that kids don’t like are either risky (e.g. coffee) or difficult to digest (all kinds of cabbage), so it is good that kids don’t like them. For adults being able to expand acceess to available foods helps feeding the horde in difficult times.
So I was right to avoid the golumpkis
(They really aren’t bad… but cooked cabbage smell is scary to a child)
Doesn’t help a lot of people used to just boil broccoli without seasoning. Doesn’t do the flavor any favors.
My stepmother was that way so I couldn’t stand broccoli growing up. Most vegetables were blan and tasteless without salt and boiled.
I rarely buy them now because I can’t physically handle cooking every day now. So most vegetables go bad in the fridge.
That’s interesting. Do you have any sources on this phenomenon?
This one, for example: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4654709/
Or this one: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22197939/
Originally, I had read a cluster of those articles some years ago, but scientific articles like to hide behind paywalls nowadays.
And at old age, it ends like this: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/05/05/526750174/why-taste-buds-dull-as-we-age
his source is that he made it the fuck up!
~(MGR:R joke)~
Broccoli is so good it makes me horny too. I fucking love broccoli.
But, do you love fucking broccoli?
It was, “I, fucking, love broccoli.”
What happens at the farmers market stays at the farmers market
I’m not kink shaming but if you fuck the broccoli you better not leave it at the farmers market. You take that shit home with you afterwards.
You’re damn right. Broccoli mates for life, not just for Christmas.
Never was a statement more false than this one.
Your statement creates a paradox. You must sacrifice a partition to Windows or risk Steve Jobs visiting you in the night.
I’d rather risk Steve jobs visiting me in the night, much safer option.
My theory on this is that some of the hate for a lot of vegetables comes from either eating canned ones or poorly cooked ones. My girlfriend didn’t know she liked green beans until she started living with my family and my father made her some. My dad sautéed the in butter with garlic, and she only had ever had those extremely mushy canned ones and had concluded on that basis she hated green beans.
Fun Fact, if broccoli kinda tastes like soap to you, congratulations! You have a gene variation that makes certain bitter flavors taste like soap, it’s stronger in childhood (which is potentially why “Kids hate broccoli” trope is a thing) and tends to fade into adulthood, but not always.
There are also studies being done to figure out specifically which compounds in broccoli make it taste like that to cultivate it out to encourage more broccoli consumption
I hate having this gene variant, so many things taste bad. People judge you, it’s hard to order at restaurants, etc.
Glad to see some scientific stuff under a “I would fuck his mom for serving broccoli” content.
Are you saying that I might stop hating coriander when I retire? But I really like broccoli, so maybe it’s a different kind of soap gene…
Broccoli rules, one of my favorite veggies, along with carrots and fresh green beans.
Throw asparagus in there and I’m in.
Broccoli and cheese is awesome. Other preparations like steamed are not as delicious, but ymmv.
Steamed broccoli with a little soy sauce & Sriracha is one of my absolute favorite snacks. Cauliflower, too. I’m gonna go make some.
Steamed is my default method of cooking broccoli.
I cut the stalk up for soup and pasta. Then I lightly steam the florets and I like it.
In almost all cases, I frankly detest steamed vegetables. Probably due to my grandmother steaming the absolute piss out of ANY vegetable when we visited. My mother didn’t overcook them nearly as bad, but to this day I just don’t enjoy the flavor of any vegetable steamed nearly as much as I do roasted in the oven. High heat + short time + delicious, crisp, lightly charred goodness
