Brussels Sprouts.

Asparagus. I love cooking it with minced garlic and eating it over couscous.

Green beans, tomatoes, and pickles (cucumbers) are fruits, not vegetables! If it has seeds, it’s part of a plant’s reproductive system, not its vegetative structure (leaves, stems, and roots).

Ok, that’s it for today’s Pedantic Post. Thank you for indulging me, everyone.

Ok, keep it civil people.

I don’t think I can pick just one, but in the top 10 are broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower and Great Northern beans.

I would also add in mushrooms, but technically, they’re not vegetables, because they’re fungus.

@tom_g Who’s not being civil? I made fun of myself – I even jokingly described myself as “pedantic” – and I light-heartedly thanked everyone for putting up with me. What isn’t civil about that?

I think big daddy dill was jokin, :p

@Symbeline Ha! Maybe so. I guess we’re all having fun and keeping it light.

Berserker's avatar

If he wasn’t joking though, good thing he’s not a mod. XD

And keeping it light, was that some kind of pickle oriented joke? be civil, dammit XD

Sadly, I am not terrifically fond of vegetables. I am trying to incorporate them into my diet more lately. I am okay with leafy vegetables (a spinach or romaine salad is delicious) and can eat potatoes made just about any way, but most vegetables have a texture or earthy taste that disagrees with my palate. In soups, however, I can eat most veggies.
