Ew I don't understand pube eaters at all (with regards only to broccoli, I don't always mind a nice bush). The broccoli florets or whatever are so dry and end up tasting bitter and just taking forever to eat. I only like the shaft but the shaft is probably better than cucumber in terms of a nice crispy veggie that you can just bite into and chew raw. Raw broccoli florets are inedible unless you have like a liter of ranch which kinda defeats the purpose.

Idk man you're right, cooked broccoli is still good even with the pubes but have you ever tried to eat a raw piece of broccoli by itself? I prefer raw veggies and the pubes are just intolerable to me personally. Even cooked I think the stalk is better but definitely when it's raw I can't stand the pubes.

trauma dump incoming, feel free to skip

While my parents were forcing me to do hard manual labor as punishment for not going through school fast enough, that hard manual labor consisting of me lifting boulders and carrying them around the yard into various piles, they also had a compost bin.

On one cold winter day, I realized they had forgotten to feed me, and I was starving. And in the compost bin, uh, from the warmth and heat, from the compost, a broccoli sprout had sprouted and seeded and grown. It had been left alone over the winter, and sticking up out of that broccoli sprout was a beautiful, delicious looking head of broccoli, and I was able to snap that off and eat it as my only breakfast that day.

That broccoli was honestly so fucking delicious.

I still love broccoli to this day. I'll eat it raw, I'll eat it cooked, I'll eat it baked, I'll eat it mashed into a paste.

You have no idea how good broccoli can be when you're hungry, tired, freezing, cold, and bleeding.

I love broccoli florets. The stems, I can take 'em or leave 'em. I've certainly eaten worse things than thick, fresh, healthy broccoli. Brocs 4 life!

I used to boil them before I fed them to my snails.

I miss my mystery snails. They were little weird alien water bunnies, and I loved them.

I like both. But I know I’m in the minority. That’s why everyone stares at me when I’m deepthroating whole stalks at the grocery store.
