    I would take a carrot and stab the extremist in the eye; Die Hard 2 style.

    Raw with nothing added? Grape tomatoes - any tomatoes! - would be my first pick, but they're technically a fruit, so... broccoli, baby carrots and cucumber.

    The cukes will make me burp like mad, but I love them, and that's a small price to pay for putting a gun to my head.

    Broccoli
    Carrot
    kohlrabi

    Was gonna put tomato and avocado, but they are fruits and you didn't say the vegetable extremist had any fruits did you? :tongue: I know, way to get technical.

    "I know you hate vegetables my friend. That's ok, and I can respect that. BUT I love you and *today* you are going to eat some. I have here every vegetable in the world--each of them raw and with nothing added. Pick from 3 to 5 of them NOW and eat them please, or I will have to lovingly blow your head off. Sorry, it's just tough love. You have 10 seconds to decide and start chomping--and no iceberg lettuce or your whole family gets it!! GO! 10.. 9.. 8.."

    What three do you pick for "best bang (ha ha) for the buck" in terms of nutritional value in an otherwise meat and dairy rich diet?

    Gosh, this guy is being awfully patient (he's counting VERY slowly as he lets me post this!!)

    Thanks in advance!

    raw only?

    carrots, cucumber, mushrooms, avocado

    I can eat piles of broccoli, spinach, cauliflower but they gotta be steamed.

    For ya'll saying avocado, that's technically a fruit...just sayin', lol. I guess mushrooms ain't either. When you think about it there's a ton of 'veggies' we tend to classify as veggies that aren't veggies at all. Zucchini, squash, tomato, avocado, cucumber, mushrooms. None of these are vegetables and mushrooms aren't even plants. : 3

    For me I'd say broccoli, onions and...hm, carrots? I don't know, I don't like raw vegetables! I like them, but only cooked, I'd never eat a raw piece of broccoli and actually enjoy it, lol.

    1. Tomatoes (any kind)
    2. Cucumbers
    3. Broccoli

    pretty much love ALL veggies so my list could go on and on.

    Also, pretty sure OP didn't mean harm with his choice of words, I, myself, didn't hear about Colorado until I got in to work this morning. May the families and friends of all the victims find peace...my prayers are with them all...

    Spinach and tomatoes are a staple in my diet, if I had to pick a 3rd because I have a gun to my head I guess I could go for the carrot.

    It's so hard to pick only 3, I guess I will have to go with 3 of the ones I couldn't give up if I tried.

    Spinach
    Mushrooms
    Broccoli
