And it still tastes fucking awful. Yes, I've had them roasted, yes from great kitchens.

No, they're not tasty.

"No, these are less shitty."

They're still shitty, just less.

As I understand, there's some genetic invariant, which makes them taste like literal shit to some folks. I think, the same is then true for broccoli and presumably other brassica cultivars...

I love broccoli.

Brussels sprouts are garbage.

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

Hmm, well, no idea then. Maybe you do just not like the taste then. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm in this club too. brussel sprouts are the only ones that just taste awful to me and I can eat any other brassica
