What is even happening?

I support you on this. Not with brocoli in particular, though it's right on the border of what I can swallow, but some foods taint everything they touch. Peanuts are the worst. If you stack a chocolate chip cookie on a peanut butter cookie, the chocolate chip cookie will smell like peanut butter and I can't eat it. And I will be very sad as a result.
Cookie mixing is a crime against God and nature.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am with you, Sophia, on the nastiness of melon. I can eat around it if I am trying really hard to be polite, but the taste definitely spreads.

Oddly, Midori tastes okay to me.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Creepy robotic cookware tells you how to cook with itself.

Normally I'm all in favor of robots in the home, but I don't like these.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

I love melon. But I hate melon at most restaurants, because it's been cut too soon and isn't sweet enough by far. I avoid fruit salad in restaurants like the plague.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Satanic lemon for sale!

Looks a bit like a buddah's hand citron: [link]

which is kinda cool and primal because the citron is one of the oldest citrus fruits

Q: Is there any kind of guarantee that the lemon will get along with, or at least not eat, my cat?

A: This lemon is too busy ushering in the Apocalypse, so your cat will be safe. Until, you know, the Apocalypse.

The only food I can think of offhand that I dislike is (are?) beets. And my wife has conclusively proven to me that the nasty flavor can be sufficiently disguised in a chocolate cake, allowing the cook to take great advantage of their inherent moistness.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I thought I was the only person in the world who disliked the prevalence of melon in fruit salad! But I am not. Yay.
