    Brussels sprouts look and taste like little green brains. I have no idea what brain actually tastes like, but I imagine it’s brussels sprouts.

      Brussel sprouts are delicious. Modern versions have had their bitterness bred out. Roasted until crispy with olive oil and garlic and salt and they’re fantastic.

      Problem is the fools that boil or steam them. That way lies little green brains.

        They taste like the worst version of a cabagge and they smell god awful while being prepared. I do believe some michelin star chef could make me a version I can eat but it would be a much more involved version not just roasted till crispy.

      Btw, you can cook and taste brain. It’s not the most common thing to find, but you can sometimes find it at a butcher shop, along with the insides of other animals
