They're so good if cooked well. Roasted with garlic and olive oil

    No, I do not hate them - quite the opposite. Pliny the Elder knew what was up, BRASICA CULT FOR LIFE.

    I never minded them as a kid but they weren't the best. The newer varities are quite nice. Love them roasted or broiled!

    And it still tastes fucking awful. Yes, I've had them roasted, yes from great kitchens.

    No, they're not tasty.

    "No, these are less shitty."

    They're still shitty, just less.

    As I understand, there's some genetic invariant, which makes them taste like literal shit to some folks. I think, the same is then true for broccoli and presumably other brassica cultivars...

    I love broccoli.

    Brussels sprouts are garbage.

    I've only ever had the modern version. Not really a fan. I suspect I would've preferred the more bitter variety.
