The Day of the Dolphin

“No, I swear, it was the dolphin! The dolphin acted alone! You have to believe me!”

New Vegetable Hybrid, The Flower Sprout

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

I was pretty sure, until a few hours ago, that we had all the vegetables we needed. I thought we might have learned our lesson after the whole broccoflower debacle, but I was wrong.

I’ve got an aversion to eating hybridized plants. The last abomination that I tasted (a pluot, which is a plum crossed with an apricot) was the single most horrid thing I’ve ever bitten into. It was like biting into a sour cow’s testicle with a giant marble in the center. Granted, that was a fruit (I think) but I have my doubts that this will be any better. WTF Wednesday, indeed.

“The flower sprout is a cross between Brussels sprouts and kale…”

*Blech*

Who tries to make Brussels sprouts better by adding kale? Have you ever tried kale? I’m pretty sure it’s already a hybrid: romaine lettuce + sandpaper.

Who decided this was a good idea? Oh, what’s that? The English?  Well, of course; those renowned culinary innovators. Read more here.
