    You don't have to eat broccoli. Or, you could eat it on pizza. . .

    But that would ruin the pizza.

    I can't get past the smell of cooked broccoli. It's turned me off even considering eating it (or cauliflower) raw.

    I can't stand it cooked, but do like it raw. It tastes almost like raw cabbage to me, which I also like. Can't take the texture of cauliflower, so not going there raw or cooked.

    I don't like broccoli by itself but I love broccoli pizza. Get a frozen thin crust pizza. Remove the pepperoni and load the broccoli on it. I like crispy pepperoni so I put those on top. Cook for about half the recommended time and then cut into slices. Cook for remaining time or until done. Delicious. The brand I use is 340 calories for a third of the pizza (medium size) before broccoli.

    I legit thought this was going to say
    "I would eat more broccoli......


    if it didn't make me fart so badly"

    because that's pretty much why I don't eat more broccoli.

    I honestly thought the exact same thing @JoRocka! Ha!

    Broccoli does not make me fart. Broccoli just makes me sad.

    Cook your broccoli with pepperoni, tomatoes, basil and cheese.

    Now there's a thought!

    Drown your broccoli in cheese sauce. Hover your fork over the plate and realize that pizza is as many calories. Throw out broccoli and get pizza.

    One of the things that differentiate adults from kids is "you eat what you don't like"
    Eat your veggies,kid!

    I've been an adult for twenty years and I won't eat something I don't like. (Exceptions for when I don't want to hurt someone's feelings so I'll take a nibble.)

    Fortunately I love plenty of fruits and veg. Now that I'm thinking about it though maybe the secret to adulthood is convincing yourself you love healthy things?

    You shouldn't use volumetric measurements for solid foods... :#

    Speak for yourself. I simply will not waste calories on foods I don't like.

    I would eat more broccoli.... If it didn't make me bloat. I love broccoli - particularly roasted in a little fat with salt...

    Pepperoni is a *kitten* tier topping.

    If you were talking about mushrooms, I'd agree.

    I'm OK with broccoli alone (raw or cooked), but especially like it on pizza with other veg. Soooo gooood.

    I :heart: broccoli. Raw celery, on the other hand, has no place in my food diary and never will. I have better delivery methods for peanut butter. Like a spoon.
