"As a child my family's menue consisted of two choices: take it or leave it." ~Buddy Hackett

I mostly chose to take it! But not tomatoes. Never those. Nor did I particularly care for brussel sprouts or artichoke hearts. I am not, after all, southern by any stretch of the imagniation. There was a long while in my life when I pretty much didn't eat veggies unless they were soaked in soy sauce and stir-fried, but now I'm quite fond of the greenery. Cruciferuous vegetables are the rockstars as far as nutrients go, and I'm super fond of tuber and root veggies as well. I can eat yams ALL DAY LONG, and bell peppers make an appearence in my diet daily. Though I have a fantastic affinity for veggies in my adult life, I still can't dig a tomato that isn't sauced, and I think brussel sprouts smell like feet when you cook 'em. Yep.
