I dated a British girl in high school. She microwave broccoli in water. No salt or seasoning. No butter. No nothing.

She took it out, drained the water and told me her dish was done.

That was the last time she made anything for us.

    That doesn't sound all that bad? Not everything needs to be salted. Broccoli in and of itself has a nice flavour, imo

    Sounds like me, except I would drink the broccoli water.

    Once you reset your palette, cutting out excess salt and sugar and cheap fats, and processed foods, you learn to enjoy the taste of whole foods all on their own. Salted ourselves to taste, which is far less than processed food will add.

    ...there's gotta be a healthy solution somewhere between industrially processed meals and plain microwave-boiled broccoli
