Why Do People let Themselves Get Obese?

[Provost Harrison]

I steam them as a rule, although my general method of preparing veg is by stir fry...

[Provost Harrison]

...plus I have an onion addiction. I just can't get enough of the things

[Dr. Nick]

Raw is best.

[Provost Harrison]

That's what fruit is for. And some veggies work well raw - carrot for example...

Raw capsicum peppers, onions and gherkin pickle go great in any sandwich.

[Provost Harrison]

I do generally like my food cooked

[Dauphin]

Medium rare to rare steak, with the blood still oozing for me.

[Provost Harrison]

Steak is an exception to that rule

How do you like your gazpacho?

[Provost Harrison]

I don't, unless it is warmed up

It's the one thing I can't stand about English vegetables. Boiled cabbage, boiled sprouts,...

PH, I'm told the French used to have a saying: "The English only have two vegetables, and they're both cabbage."

Honestly, I am with the French on this one. No wonder we can't get our kids to eat anything other than fast food when we confront them with this crap

Yeah, but they pickle it a bit first for good measure first Hell, the Koreans just let it rot and then eat it...

When I was at school I was forced to eat things like rhubarb crumble and custard, pears and peaches, raw tomatoes, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Bletch.

Forcing you to eat food you couldn't stomach was the stupidest thing my school ever did.
