In some ways they're a less brassicaceously advanced veg. My dad had a deep horror of Brussels sprouts, from traumatic over-exposure during his army days. (But just once, he ate and liked our Brussels sprouts hash.)SaraGardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04917288352333946665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2613900352373458842.post-22056565385362429582009-11-16T07:31:55.309-05:002009-11-16T07:31:55.309-05:00Skunk cabbage wine...I think not!
