So, how many acres do you have planted, in broccoli?

“grind it in a pill for me please, and I’ll take it”

Try it with lots of mayo...yum yum.

[earlJam]

Vile Weed!!!!!

[NormsRevenge]

add cauliflower and brussel sprouts to the list..

[ThomasThomas]

Bush’s fault. (Sr)

He didn’t like broccoli either.

[patriot08]

It’s good with cheese sause..otherwise I’ll pass.

[mainsail that]

Yeah but daily :)?

Does anyone know of a ‘brocoli’ pill? I know it might not be the same exact thing, but even close enough is better than nothing

[AlexW]

There are plenty of pills. Here is one I just got from search:

I don’t remember this guy playing for the Celtics. Did he play after Larry Bird retired?

Broccoli is the fruit of the poisoned vine.

FORMER Celtic star John Hartson wishes he had munched his greens instead of steak and chips during his playing days.

Facts not in evidence. There is nothing in the article that suggests that eating "greens" instead of simply adding broccoli to his steak and chips would be any better at warding off cancer.

[Salamander]

I use “DIM-Plus”.

Because I like to be *extra* dim....:)

[seriously...if my touchy tummy can tolerate it, anybody’s can]

[Katya]

Pretty much my favorite cooked vegetable...that goes for my kids tooo!!!
Yummiest steamed,with a sprinkling of lemon.

[grey_whiskers]

Too bad he didn't have the chance to read this during his playing days...

Cheers!
