Roughly 1kg of them daily, yes.
>>21940100please allow me to live with youno homo
>>21939937Not only do I eat them, I grow a lot of them. Green onions, garlic, green beans, arugula, Swiss Chard, tomatoes, jalapenos, cilantro.
>>21939937i had pineapples and jalapenos on my pizza just now as a matter of fact
>>21939937only with meat
>>21940107Our house is too small for long-term guests. My wife would be displeased.

>>21939937>posts the literally unhealthiest served vegetable in existence
barely, only avocado which is a fruit I think
>>21939937once in a while i'll force myself to eat a side of veggies. usually i pass however.
>>21939937Yeah I killed this quadriplegic retard for meat. What a great investment; the cheapest long-pig I've ever come across
>>21940332quadriplegic doesn't mean vegetative
>>21939937Right now I'm just eating a baked potato, on it's own
>>21940333I went for the vegetable that couldn't run, anon. Those other vegetables were too quick for me
>>21940119I'm gonna make myself really small like a tiny mouse you'll hardly ever notice me. I may raid the fridge for cheese tho.
>>21939937Yes, I am not a child.My favorites include brocollis, carrots, pea pods and string beans, all steamed and served with a pinch of salt and olive oil.For salads I like lettuce, tomatoes, red onions, palm hearts and olives, with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and sometimes oreganun.
>>21939937Root vegetables only. Leaves are for cattle
>>21940547>all steamed and served with a pinch of salt and olive oil.Could you please educate me on how to properly steam veggies? Because apparently I *am* a child. The only way I know how to cook veg is to bake on a sheet w/ olive oil & serve w/ goat cheese. But I really want to steam (like broccoli & peas) but I have no idea what the simplest (and most cost-efficient) method is. Thanks in advance if you or any anon helps me.
>>21939937No way fag.
>>21940266>>posts the literally unhealthiest served vegetable in existenceIs this kale shit real or is it just a meme? I swear I only just recently heard about kale being bad like a couple weeks ago. Has this always been a thing? What's wrong with it? Is it bad for human digestion or something? Kale is pretty good in potato soup.
>>21940620too much Kale can cause infertility and other nasty stuff, it was mostly popularized in the 2010s by some self proclaimed "psychic" retard
>>21940631And what is too much kale? Sounds like something that would happen if you ate tons of kale every day for entire meals and stopped eating a normal balanced diet. People have been eating kale for thousands of years.
>>21940347We also have so much cheese that it sometimes gets lost/forgotten in the back of the cheese drawer. Just last night, I found an unopened vac-pack of gruyere that "expired" in 2018 while looking for the parmigiano for last night's risotto. So I opened it and tasted a piece and it now tastes like parmigiano stravecchio so i used it to make Italian macaroni-and-cheese instead of the risotto. With peas mixed in. Salad after. Fuji apples after that.And we've got three refrigerators.
>>21939937only when I have to.
>>21940100your shits must be legendary.>>21940620>What's wrong with it?other than it taste like shit? I don't know.
>>21940547tastelet detected.
>>21939937Yeah I had a corndog with ketchup that's corn and tomatoes
>>21939937>eat vegetables?yeah I eat pretzels and bread and stuff it's made from plants therefore vegetable also ketchup and mustard
>>21940547a child wrote this
>>21940347ditto thisbut i do have very very very much cheese lying about
>>21939937YehmanTonight's dinner is probably going to be some all-wrong mapo tofu with rice, and garlicky gai lan with fried mushrooms and cashews... The pork chops, mushrooms, and the gai lan are going regardless of what I turn them into.
>>21940638I don't recall the exact amount, also the effects of excessive consumption of kale can come in different forms, for example some farms in Tasmania fed a heavy based kale diet to their cows and their milk became pure poison, children got thyroid diseases for drinking the milk, also I confused celery with kalekale causes hyperthyroidismcelery causes infertility>Sounds like something that would happen if you ate tons of kale every dayeating some kale here and there won't cause you any trouble but there is no merit to add kale to your diet, I think it can be used as medicinal food but don't quote me on that>People have been eating kale for thousands of years.yup, but it wasn't consumed as much as it is today
>>21940840Kale contains Isothiocyanates, which are mustard oil compounds than can help regulate our gut microbiome and kills pathogens such as E. coliBut you can also get these compounds from mustard, garlic and wasabi. And all species in the mustard family. In fact kale is the least tasty of all Isothiocyanate food sources. I'd rather eat broccoli Fuck kale
Yes, my favorite method is hotpot/shabu.
>>21940620It has too much oxalates just like spinach, I think that actor Liam Hemsworth had kidney stones because for a long time he drank spinach and kale smoothies in the morning. Oxalates bond to calcium and create calcium oxalates crystals that build up in your kidneys. Cooking the veggies reduced the oxalates but depending on the veggie no by much or maybe 50%.But since people like their veggies to stay green and vibrant they just blanch em for 30 seconds, you gotta boil em for at last 5 mins for the oxalates to leach into the water.
>>21940873>spinach and kale smoothiesYeah I dunno, I think spinach and kale are fine but when you start doing things like that and consuming more than you normally would it's not surprising you'd run into problems.I like spinach and kale and can eat a lot but if I eat it a lot for a few meals I get tired of it and stop wanting it. There was probably a point where he got sick of it but since it's a smoothie it's still easy to keep forcing it down.
>>21940873Too many oxalates and not enough magnesium. Magnesium binds oxalates and reduces their absorption. When people do restrictive diets they often experience "oxalate dumping" which is very unpleasant.Epsom salts are often used to help detox from excess oxalates.We all should eat more magnesium foods!
>>21939937I like green beans
>>21941001True, problem is a lot of the soil food is grown on is depleted of miners so supplementation is an option. >>21940985Not a big fan myself except Spanakopita. I will make a mean Spanakopita and enjoy it. I think Liam was vegan during that time, all those raw veggies is not good in the long run, the body can't absorb and convert most of the nutrients.
>>21941007minerals*
>>21940565Put veg in pot. Put little bit of water in. Just enough so that when the veg is done cooking, all the water wouldve evaporated away. Close lid or leave slightly ajar. Choose appropriate heat.There is another way but this is more like a blanch. Which is you boil the water first then put the veg in.
>>21941162But wouldn't this risk burning the veg if water evaporates too quickly? I assumed the best way would be to fix like a strainer/colander-type attachment to the top of a pot filled with boiling water so the steam rises & the veg literally gets steamed directly, not just submerged in water.
>>21939937I just had chili, chili has tomatoes, onions and peppers and those are vegetables.
>>21942005>But wouldn't this risk burning the veg if water evaporates too quickly?Yeah but the water shouldn't really evaporate that quickly. Don't leave it on max heat, it just needs to be steaming and not boiling. At most it might end up a little brown unless you ignore it for a long time.They sell steamer baskets for that though but you can still do it without.
>>21939937I'm lazy so I subscribe to a local hello fresh alternative and they put a lot of veggies in the food so yeah I guess I eat them because it would be a waste to throw them out
>>21940347how small a mouse we talking here?
>>21940645>And we've got three refrigerators.Three full size?
>>21939937>Tomatoes $9 for 2-3 of them>Cucumbers $8 now>Bell peppers been $6 each since covid>Fruit is impossibly expensive too unless you want the blandest fucking shitty Filipino bananas you've had in your life that taste like chalk>The only affordable shit is onions and pumpkin which both taste like shit unless mixed with other vegetablesPotatoes are basically it, and they're more just something you have with every meal instead of a real vegetable.
>>21944515Humans eat brassica, carrots, and dehydrated onion.
>>21944515I bought, like, 36 tomatoes for just over $5 the other day (10lbs at 49¢/lb)I bought two-ish pounds of cucumber last month for $2.50ish ($1.39/lb)I'm buying bell peppers this week for $1.49/lbI bought 6lbs of Fuji apples recently for $2 (50¢/lb but the till guy forgot to scan the third bag and I didn't notice until I'd already left the store).Navel oranges are also 50¢/lb. Bananas are 44¢/lb. Blueberries and blackberries are $1/dry pint.Your very, very, very shit at shopping.>>21940873>Liam HemsworthHe should just be a model. He's by far the worst popular actor ever. Shit actors like Stallone and Schwarzenegger at least can act the parts they're typecast in. Liam can't act at all.>>21942937Sorta. Two full size, one apartment fridge and my 26 year old mini fridge from my college dorm that still works. I wasn't counting the mini fridge but I guess combining that and the apartment fridge = full size fridge.
>>21939937I only eat vegetables
>>21944872> Food costs the same everywhere
>>21939937vegetables are for fags and rabbits
>>21946476t. ass cancer before they turn 40

>>21946475Nigga, if I can get cheap food in fucking New York and SF, you can get cheap food in whatever irrelevant nowhere you live in. Fuck you.
>>21944515go to farmer's markets in high summer, the grocery stores have figured out that only bougies buy low nutrition vegetables
>>21939937No, that's what my food eats
>>21946537>just dont eat fruit and veg for 3/4 of the year
>>21946531> There must be cheap food everywhere because I'm a retarded coastoid
You bet I do.
>>21942740>t. Vegetable farmers wife.
>>21946476I fuck like a rabbit because I eat my vegetables You fuck for 2 minutes before dying of meat sweatsWe are not the same
>>21939937Kale is delicious. I mostly snip it into soups at the end, or use it in cole slaw mixes.
>>21940873Spinach is high in oxalates but kale is very low
>>21949913No, there must be cheap food everywhere because the two most expensive places in the country have cheap food, you cousinfucking yokel.
>>21950398> Dang ol', you think therefore you areStay ignorant douchebag
>>21950404Stay shit at shopping, quivering cuntflap.
