Today I discovered my Dad boils broccoli for precisely seventeen minutes, until every vitamin is good and dead, and I honestly don't understand how his generation survived long enough to reproduce.
@dutchbarracuda all the nutrition has gone into the water, which is now the same insipid yellow colour as the broccoli itself
@afewbugs I dread to think what he does to "cook" Brussel sprouts...
@quixoticgeek He doesn't, he hates them. Although if he treats them like that the feeling's probably mutual
@afewbugs Question is how did you survive his cooking?
"It just tastes better this way."
"Dad, a brick has more nutritional value than this!"
