 I have no idea what you're talking about. 
And for people whom don't like carrots, try making carrot french fries! Cut a carrot lengthways and then cut each half lengthways again. Then chop your four long quarters in half widthways. Plunge the carrots into a pan full of corn oil for about eight minutes and then place on paper towel to remove the excess oil. Serve the carrot french fries by drizzling with a mix of melted butter and a teaspoon of English Mustard. The melted butter/mustard mix is also good drizzled over baby new potatoes. Just melt two ounces of butter in a teacup in a microwave and stir in the mustard. You can add half a teaspoon of garlic granules too, if you're feeling creative. Fanny Craddock?? Is that you??!

So what's everybody else's favourite vegetable? Where do we all stand on the raw/cooked debate? Is life too short to stuff a mushroom? | |

Sorry, I could never eat a raw carrot.  That's just some petty rule I invented for myself.
When I think veg, I think of an entire Sunday Roast so it's hard to say. But I love parsnips.  Honey glazed parsnips. And roast poatato.
Just don't come near me with a cauliflower.  | |

I love all fruit and veg ... I even tried Durian fruit ("Vomit Fruit")this year which wasn't too bad. The only veg I don't really like are leeks. I'll eat them but I'd never choose them. Favourite veg is probably brussels sprouts. | |

Yeah, I can only eat cauliflower if it's smothered in cheese sauce. Reincarnate said: Favourite veg is probably brussels sprouts.
Love them! Leftover sprouts and potatoes make great Bubble & Squeak (instead of using cabbage). | |

Justin1972UK said: Teacher said: Justin, check out a drug called Omeprazol, I take it against my heartburn (gotten by taking other meds
 ) and the effect lasts for about 36 hours on me, way better than sissy Zantac. If you can't find the drug under that name, orgnote me and I'll find out what the active substance is called.  I've Googled it and the possible side-effects seem a bit unpleasant: http://www.drugs.com/omeprazole.html Possible yes, but I've experienced NONE. In the swedish side-effects listing the possible side effects are listed as 1.common(occurs in less than 1 out of a 100 people), 2.moderately rare (in less than 1 of a 1,000) and 3.extremely rare (in less than 1 out of every 10,000) and only the allergic reaction is listed as common. Like I said I've experienced no side effects at all, only a huge relief from the otherwise obnoxious heartburn.  | |
