Which would you rather be, broccoli or asparagus?

SOJOURNER · Post by **SOJOURNER** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 9:57 am

I was excited to see this question and disappointed I could not post an answer. I think this should be a postable thread. So, in the vein of everyone else here who does what moves them, I am stealing the question (I hope you don't mind, Floppy) and requesting that ONLY serious posters repond.

Being green, I empathize with these veggies and love them both dearly.

However, if I had my druthers -- and given the opportunity to choose, I would NOT want to be a short, chubby, round clump of green, when the opportunity to be a tall, thin, slender, highly desired stately stalk of veggieness was offered.

I hope I have not offended any Brocollis out in FG land, but a vegetable is, what it is.............

I'd be a baby asparagus. Highly delectable, skinny yet short, and a little on the expensive side.

I think they speak for themselves.

After ActionfigureStepho asked, "I'd love to see your justfication for brussel sprouts."

Nomad responded, "I think they speak for themselves."

SoJo says: That's a cop out!

No vague inferences accepted here.

I wonder about people that sit around thinking what it would be like o be a vegetable. Why don't they just join the Tory/labour/republican/democrat party and live the experience for real:yh_rotfl :yh_rotfl

As they say in Glasgow-is that asparagus-no I think it's a budgie:yh_laugh

EEEWWWW - I don't eat that slimy stuff - okra either (unless it's pickled).

Maybe I would be spinach, if I don't look like Popeye!

I'd choose to be the broccoli....

Would have nice stalks with a full head of green hair.

There is so much more one can do with broccoli verses asparagus.

That's true, stir fry broccoli with beef strips.....................
