Freshly cooked with egg, ham and butter sauce they are very good.
I raise you brussels sprouts:
Peanuts:
Yes, they grow underground like potatoes.
Well but they aren’t roots, they’re from a stem that goes back under.
And the violet one tastes great:
I’ll see your Brussels Sprouts, and raise you Cashews:
And here I always thought they grew like tiny cabbages
Wait until you hear how closely related they are to cabbages
I can’t believe you just spent an hour hotgluing brussel sprouts to a small tree just to trick people on the internet

I see your brussels sprouts and raise you pineapples:

I’ve never understood this meme. Like what did you expect them to look like, and why is this apparently alarming?
I expected them to hang off a central stalk. Or perhaps grow like corn, where there’s a more plant-looking plant growing with the asparagus inside it.

Asperagus blooming:
