Sprouts, for or against??

[humbersloop]

As the clocks go back soon and the time to set them boiling is upon us, where do you stand?

I love 'em! Recipes also welcome. tia

Sprouts and beer go together well.

Love 'em, it's not Christmas dinner without them !

[emmie]

like them, as long as you don't boil them into submission they are fine. Lots of butter and a little nutmeg sprinkled over, nice

[Lie-in King]

Sprouts are wonderful. Not just for the humbug season...

They are an incredibly convenient way to eat your greens. It's like popping maltesers in your mouth. Just without the pleasure.

Sorry em - I like them 'boiled into submission', can't stand hard sprouts !!!

[Mamyalynne]

[EDDIE51]

Mystery to me why they were ever considered edible.

[tonyav]

Only on Christmas day and they must be with chestnuts.

[Mamyalynne]

EDDIE - they are gorgeous niblets of green goodness and so tasty.

[ummmm]

They are okay.

Hey Eddie did your mom make you drink cabbage water when you were a kid, mine did :-(

[Traci66]

Disgusting little things.

[ummmm]

Tony, I still drink cabbage water. Nice with black pepper.

[EDDIE51]

When they were young my kids started crying if they even saw a bag of sprouts being carried into the house. We have 2 bags in the freezer, been there for at least 2 years uneaten, even the dog won't touch them.

[tonyav]

Oh nooooooooooooooo, ummmm.
