    I'm no hater when it comes to vegetables, but sorry Robin I'm not with you when it comes to the Brussel Sprouts. Yeah, there probably healthier than the average vegetable but I think they taste terrible. I've gaged before when I ate some. Turnip's well that has never been prepared around the house with my family so I would have to say I probably wouldn't like those either (but I'd try it at least). I like the carrots, the green beans, the lettuce, the corn, the peas, tomato, potato's, yam's I can't think of any other at the moment but I know there's more! Do you really like them (Brussel Sprouts) or do you only eat them cause there so healthy?

    I hadn't noticed the thumbs down but i am most shocked about it! Brussel sprouts are brilliant and it should be law that all people must eat them at Christmas and at least one other time in the year; possibly Easter, with lots of gravy.

    I am a definite thumbs up. If I don't agree with an answer then I ignore it.

    I love Brussel Sprouts,

    Thumbs down, and it probably because the Brussels sprouts we all had growing up were overcooked and got that awful, dank veggie smell (and taste). I can't even look at them now, despite being quite tasty when prepared properly.

    I love brussell sprouts. It is one of my favorites. With butter and a little nutmeg... or sauted with some carmelized onions! Perfect! I can just eat a whole bowl of them for a meal and be happy! Tho I do fart alot after....

  • I am a thumbsUPPER on the B-sprouts. I noticed the thumbsdowning as well. I don't get it. Someone must have a brussel sprouts vendetta.

    Can't stand them, they taste weird. Not so affected that I'd give a thumbs down though.

    I eat them all the time. I roast them with olive oil and some spices. If you do not cook them right they can be very bitter, which is why a lot of people may not like them.
