I must confess, I'm a broccoliphile. I can't resist lightly steamed broccoli with butter, salt and pepper. I believe that it can be cured if one overcooks the broccoli so it's no longer slightly crunchy and becomes a soft, flavorless green mush.

It's not "cabbage," it's good for you, and it tastes great when cooked right ... especially with Hollandaise Sauce! YUM! :D

Yes it is! Along with cauliflower, brussel sprouts, kale, collard greens, and others. They're all the same species, Brassica oleracea. :)

Broccoli is delicious, I also like asparaghus <sp>. I suppose it could all be cured by ripping out my tongue but that seems a bit drastic and unecessary from my point of view.

I like broccoli in Chinese Food, and this habit fills me with shame. Every morning when I awake, I remember spearing my fork into the tender flesh, and decadently lowering it into the hot sauce of lust.
My sould cries for me to stop, to spare just one, but I know that I cannot.
Truly, I am a damned man.

Cabbage can be good too. Mix it with a bit of collard-greens, cook it in a couple pieces of fatback, and you've got heaven in a pot! :D
