What is your favourite vegetable?
I like most vegetables except okra. As a kid, I never liked it cuz it was so slippery and icky. :-(

My favourites are corn on the cob, spinach, broccoli, squash, and peas.

And, I love good salads...all kinds...Caesar is tops!

What about you?

2. Cauliflower...
I can just microwave/boil them and eat it plain...

And I love tomatoes and carrots raw, but HATE them when they're cooked...

Caesar salads are great too! :)

4. Tough choice.
I love broccoli, fresh green beans, carrots, summer squash, tomatoes, garden fresh peas, pea pods, spinach, asparagus...

I also love salads, really fresh ones with dark leafy lettuce, spinach, some tomatoes, and a good dressing. I also love spinach and strawberry salad with poppy seed dressing.

6. ASPARAGUS
is my fave but I like almost all veg

except beets, sweet potatoes and okra that has been boiled.

Now Fried Okra is a gift of the gods and I do put the frozen gumbo veg with the okra in it into my vegetable soup.

OH YEAH, I had okra on a vegetarian Indian buffet once and it was just cooked tender crisp with tomatoes and peppers in a nice curry sauce and was very very good. Not slimey at all

Edited on Fri Nov-19-04 08:55 AM by emulatorloo



Brian Wilson/Beach Boys - Vegetables

(Brian Wilson/Van Dyke Parks)

I'm gonna be round my vegetables
I'm gonna chow down my vegetables
I love you most of all
My favorite vege-table

If you brought a big brown bag of them home
I'd jump up and down and hope you'd toss me a carrot

I'm gonna keep well, my vegetables
Cart off and sell my vegetables
I love you most of all
My favorite vege-table

I tried to kick the ball but my tennie flew right off
I'm red as a beet 'cause I'm so embarrassed

Sleep a lot, eat a lot, brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot, do a lot, never be lazy
Sleep a lot, eat a lot, brush 'em like crazy
Run a lot, do a lot, never be lazy
Da da da da. . .

I threw away my candy bar and I ate
the wrapper. And when they told me
what I did, I burst into laughter.

I know that you'll feel better
When you send us in
Your letter an'
Tell us the name of your. . .
Your favorite vege-table
