But what type? Salad or vegetables? The eternal question

pritchke · 06-16-2003, 06:34 PM

I would go with the salad/raw vegetables. Nothing better than a Caesar, or Greek salad to start off a meal.

Salad/raw vegetable for me as well, but anything from the Plant Kingdom will do (vegetables, fruits, branches, leaves, twigs...) [img]graemlins/eating.gif[/img]

Edit: Ha, bow before me for I am Elminster.

Salad/raw vegetables for me too. I have never had any problem with vegetables, and therefore I am really amazed by the fact that there are a lot of people who hate vegetables. People disliking mushrooms, courgette, Brussel sprouts, coliflower etc. I eat it all, noooo problem!

Why are mushrooms considered vegetables when they aren't even made of vegetable matter?

And honestly, I don't know why some people so categorially dismisses all vegetables. They are after all a big diverse group of foodstuffs. If we add the diverse ways of cooking or preparing them the possibilities increase dramatically.

I can understand that one might not be too fond of a specific type, but vegetables in general??

I don't know! I don't consider them vegetables, but maybe because they're nice in salads and they're kind of a side-dish they're lumped in with vegetables? Plus we don't like to say we're eating fungus lol

And yeah I agree! How can people not like a whole food group? They all taste different! And you may notice that often when people say they don't like vegetables, they don't mean potatoes? Like potatoes aren't really veges

. Well I suppose chips aren't vegetables lol

Anyway I voted for steamed/microwaved. I'm not a big fan of salad. I think it's because I like to eat every ingredient (except in sauces lol

) separately and I don't like the way all the flavours in a salad mingle so you have tomato-flavoured lettuce and so on. Plus dressing does nothing for me. Salad seems to be the big favourite though!

Even thuogh it is possible to distill liquor from vegetables? You could vote "Ingest veggies in liquid form". On the other hand that could be miinterpreted.

I eat plenty of vegetables. I like to have a nice salad to my meals. [img]smile.gif[/img] I also like steamed or boiled vegetables.

I also like that tomato is a fruit.
