Does anyone here actually eat Brussel sprouts?


I love them! I like them better than broccoli. I prefer them steamed until they are soft, and then saute them in butter. I usually cut them in halves or quarters first, depending on the size.
I don't care much for them grilled because they can take on a bitter quality. And I don't really like them al dente. But when they cooked well, they are delicious.
I make oxtail strew on rare occasions. I like to steam Brussels sprouts, then put some in each serving bowl and ladle the strew on top. It's my own creation.
I eat them occasionally and even enjoy them on that basis. Any food becomes tiresome if you eat it constantly... even bacon!
Not bacon. Sorry. You should check out the "Bacon and Chocolate" paradox. It's immutable.
@Nikki1989 Thanks for MHO!
@DrPepper12 I like bacon and I like chocolate but I don't want bacon covered in chocolate.
I haven't had bacon in years.
The theorem is that there is NO food that cannot be improved by adding either bacon or chocolate. It has yet to be denied. It's a natural law.
@DrPepper12 And Americans wonder why so many are obese !!!
I do. I tend to love them! Just not when eating out because they like to slice them, grill them, and throw bacon bits on them. It sounds good but it really isn't, they kill them (what some places do to make their food fancy doesn't work out well). But I'm ok with loaded brussel sprouts. I tend to usually like them in a butter sauce and eat them like that with pepper. I rarely have them.
Absolutely right we do... And not only at Christmas... We very often have them with a good Sunday roast.
@Nikki1989
That certainly appears to be the case... I trust you don't particularly like them! lol
@Nikki1989
You're certainly out on a limb this time.
Others have given some excellent ideas though... Casseroles and Garlic Butter Sauce etc.
Moi.
Gosh... Thank you so much @Nikki1989 for the MHO. x

Yes, I have always frozen ones in my fridge
Love em. You gotta know how to cook them right or they will taste bitter. Plus, I will eat food for health benefits over taste any day. We're too lucky to have access to the amount of food that's available to us. Be healthy and eat your brussel sprouts lol
Yes, I like them occasionally. Not my favorite vegetable but far from the least favorite.
I think I favour them the most in a casserole dish with potatoes.
Yes! I eat almost all kinds of green veggies.
it’s not one of I had growing up. One time we ate it in a steakhouse. Hubby lived it so much, he tried making it the same way. Grilled With bacon with syrup garlic butter sauce!! He make it at lease once a month…we have a pack in the fridge now.
Love them, really are great when cooked just right.
Do them in various ways, lately it’s been Airfryer
I do! Yum! My kids like them too. My oldest will refuse to eat any kind of berry but loves Brussels sprouts, asparagus and broccoli. True story. 🤷🏻♀️

I have yet to try...
Yes I do, but it's important that they be properly prepared. I pass on an overcooked soft gooey mess.
Multiple times a week. One of my favorite vegetables, although I hated them as a kid. I prefer them roasted so there’s some char to them.
I do. And when they are prepared well they taste GREAT!
I hate them but my other half will eat a bowl at a time.
Used to hate Brussel sprouts, but I do eat them for their food value
I just did this weekend at the cheesecake factory 😋 it wasn't appetizer off their menu the Brussels sprouts are fried and smothered with a maple butter
Yes. From Ferman heritage. My grandmother use to have them mixed with beef, krout, every vegetable, brew it for days before she said we can eat. The smell was in the house for days. . When we would try it, if she was near, it tastes better later.

Yes , they are an absolute wonderfood , everybody should be eating , if you dont like the taste , just eat them anyhow , when cooked well awesome indeed.
I didn’t used to, but prepared right they’re great, like roasted or sautéed with bacon and glazed with maple syrup. Boiled or steamed are the stuff of nightmares.
Absolutely! Good flavor, I like to bake em to a little crunch.
Oh yes, since I live in Belgium they are plenty occasions to eat them.
Yes Brussel sprouts aren't just for Christmas
Yes, I eat Brussels sprouts with lots of butter. I could eat them as a meal by themselves. Russell
Me, sauteed in a cast iron skillet with some olive oil, then throw in a knob of butter, salt pepper, some parmesan cheese
Yes!! Yummy if you eat the floret and not the base
Yep, got some in the fridge right now. They're great roasted or pan fried with some garlic and butter 🤤
Fun fact they actually use to taste different that's why you hear a lot of older people say how much they hated them. They did actually taste much more bitter but have evolved over the years
Yes, and I love em roasted, just like they are shown above.
Hate Brussels. I do like Broccoli, Raw Cabbage and Spinach though.
Only if someone else at dinner orders them, might I try one.
Yeah i love them Nikki1989
I’ve never tasted them. I don’t find them very appealing. Would much rather have broccoli
If you put them in front of me I would eat them.
If they're correctly cooked...
I do lol... love when they are charred
Yes I love then with garlic butter sauce
We have them once in awhile.
