Chicken and broccoli from the Chinese food eatery establishment down the road and Steamables bags that you microwave are one hell of a meal.

This is such a great reply.

The same applies to people who come on threads exclusively to say "I hate everything you write." Well, gee, Sparky, thanks for sharing—why should I give a damn?

Reminds me of the Twitter post where a guy said he didn't like soup and people treated him like the Anti Christ 😭

Compulsory Broccoli is a good vegetarian restaurant name

gnocchidokey.bsky.social•40 days ago

moosewood made a vegetarian cookbook called the enchanted broccoli forest

mtc111.bsky.social•40 days ago

Enchanted broccoli does sound tastier than compulsory broccoli

theotherspeakman.bsky.social•40 days ago

And a good vegetarian band name.

harriet-tubgirl.bsky.social•40 days ago

What kind of person didn’t like broccoli?

wintersoldierbuck.bsky.social•40 days ago

One of my favorites is when someone barely mentions broccoli within the social media radar of someone who doesn't like it, and they feel the need to tell everyone involved they don't like it every single time it's mentioned. Once, okay. Twice, uh. 872 times? Honey, get help.

altbase.bsky.social•40 days ago

well, I don't like broccoliphobes

aviagrafik.bsky.social•40 days ago

I love broccoli but cannot eat it on account of my meds.

I’d kill for a daily plate of those little green trees.

tee-tee.bsky.social•40 days ago

I tell myself maybe they don’t have anyone to talk to and just need to hear themselves speak? I know. Im an enabler at heart.

Take a page from Weird Al and move to a Holiday Inn in Albuquerque. (Although he did that to escape sauerkraut)

gnocchidokey.bsky.social•40 days ago

you mean the city of albuquerque? where the sun is always shining, the air smells like warm root beer, and the towels are oh-so-fluffy???

jenngra505.bsky.social•40 days ago

Yep! You can eat soup out of the ashtrays, they're clean.

gnocchidokey.bsky.social•40 days ago

thank goodness because i really need my back shaved and i have exactly one nickel

jasonnlewis.bsky.social•40 days ago

But soup bowls exist
No need to repurpose the ashtrays

come on buddy, its time for the 5 minutes brocc. what do you mean you don't like it? that's heresy pal, I'm going to have to alert the authorities...

Using a tactic some child psychologists caution against, my dad's remedy for my intense dislike of black eyed peas was to chase me around the house with a spoonful of it and shove it into my mouth once I was cornered.

truthforme.bsky.social•39 days ago

Soooo funny!! I love it.

the other replies say "so you just want to eradicate broccoli from existence? so no one can have broccoli ever again? what about us broccoli lovers I can't believe you would do this imaginary thing you didn't say to us"

You're cooking it wrong

Sorry your personal compulsory broccoli chef doesn't understand your preferred flavour profiles, pal

gabriel.is.eepy.now•40 days ago

It's like people telling me to "just skip" YouTube ads if I don't like them. As if I were watching the entire ads without skipping them and the problem wasn't having to skip a bunch of ads in the first place.

timothykolk.bsky.social•40 days ago

I love broccoli.

margrim.bsky.social•40 days ago

Why do they assume you mean that you don't like eating it? What if your dislike of broccoli is rooted elsewhere? Like, what if broccoli killed your family?

anonopundit.bsky.social•40 days ago

This is just blue sky at this point (with the other half saying not eating broccoli is problematic)

birdydownunder.bsky.social•40 days ago

Broccoli is the victim here. Boiling leeches the flavour. Just steam it and put some butter and salt on it.

jordankalfus.bsky.social•40 days ago

Even better, drizzle some olive oil on there and throw on some minced garlic and roast it in the oven/grill. I'd wager that'd turn all but the most hardened broccoli haters

quixotetheidiot.bsky.social•40 days ago

Broccoli is the third best vegetable don’t at me.

fshagan.bsky.social•40 days ago

That's not true. You actually like broccoli. You have just bought into the anti broccoli kool aid.

balsamaster.bsky.social•40 days ago

I hate pickles enough that I want to prevent other people from eating them. Release the pickle version of the banana death fungus or something so people at least have to settle for the Cavendish pickle monocrop.

mattclay.bsky.social•40 days ago

Is this a nice way of illustrating the problem with homophobia, or various other anti social behaviours?

sand-loire.bsky.social•40 days ago

And the person that says "don't eat it then" is called a troll for commenting negatively on someone's innocent post. Largely because 85% of posts on social media are just as empty of meaning as "I don't like broccoli"

randommuser.bsky.social•40 days ago

hotnickelsyo.bsky.social•40 days ago

We get it you love broccoli

Why don’t you marry it already

maximumeffort433.bsky.social•40 days ago

I'm sorry, I'll be more specific: I don't like the existence of broccoli, I don't like existing in the same material plane as a universe that gave rise to broccoli, no organism needs all those little sticky up bits at the end, besides we already have cauliflower so what's the point?

goawaybrian.bsky.social•40 days ago

Blasphemy. Cauliflower is awful. Broccoli is by far the superior cruciferous vegetable.

maximumeffort433.bsky.social•40 days ago

There will be no place for you in my perfect new world.

dawookie.bsky.social•40 days ago

<> broccoli and cauliflower are the same plant, just selectively bred in different directions from the original wild type, so technically the universe didn't "give rise" to either of them. Humans made them on purpose & there are probably descendants you can complain to directly

dominusprinceps.bsky.social•40 days ago

STOP BEING A BROCCOLI APOLOGIST!
IT DOESN'T NEED YOUR HELP!

dawookie.bsky.social•40 days ago

When we put our german shepherd to sleep, we brought an entire head of broccoli along because it was his favorite and he was losing his damn mind because he got to eat a WHOLE THING so you shut your mouth!

maximumeffort433.bsky.social•40 days ago

Fine, but not for you, I'm doing it for the dog. 😒

dawookie.bsky.social•40 days ago

jfc he's dead. It's like you don't even listen to me at all!
But I will concede Luke was kind of a weird dog and probably shouldn't be used as a culinary referee.

carpederpum.bsky.social•40 days ago

In Russia, you just say "I no broccoli" and people nod in silent solemn agreement.
