Will I be eating sprouts ? Is the pope Catholic ?


Aboardman - 20/12/06 at 06:26 PM

actual my nickname is Sprout.

has been for the last 21 years.
since my first job, it is due to the litttle bloke who keeped asking question in the jolly green giant ads, his name is little green sprout or little sprout.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Green_Sprout

it has stuck with me, MD of companies have used it in meetings, my friends and godsons still call me by it.

I do not mind it. (prefer it to be called andy)

with chestnuts

If Macdonalds sold sprouts they would be marketed as "Sick McNuggets"

Nothing in the world tastes worse, I can't believe anyone really likes them.

Like a solid fart.

You fookin wierdos!!

Season Greetings

vile nasty stuff right up there with marmite sh**e


mookaloid - 20/12/06 at 07:03 PM

You missed an option from the poll:

Sprouts are great - I eat them whenever they are on offer

That would have been my vote

ps Marmite is fantastic stuff and anyone who doesn't like that can give me all their twiglets

I like Marmite, so what if i coated sprouts with Marmite

I am force fed ONE sprout at Christmas every year, much to the amusement of the whole family.

"This year i will be mainly throwing up"

Have started already. Great things. Was talking to a woman at work about them last week and she drinks sprout water! As in the water that the sprouts have been boiled in, I think thats pushing it a bit but whatever floats your boat...or sprout!


t.j. - 20/12/06 at 08:24 PM

yak!

I don't like does green b*st*rds!


iank - 20/12/06 at 08:25 PM

Love them but only if cooked right, not boiled to mush or like bullets.

Party piece as a kid was swallowing them whole, lucky never to need the Heimlich Maneuver

(love marmite as well)


Danozeman - 20/12/06 at 08:27 PM

I love them if theyr done right and theyr fresh not frozen. The frozen ones you buy in bags are shite, even in bubble and squeek.

Our chrsitmas day is excellent...... Always windy what ever the weather.


chrisg - 20/12/06 at 08:40 PM

You people are sick.....


bob - 20/12/06 at 09:20 PM

Donut if you wasnt a T total poff and drank ale you would eat sprouts as well,the results are fantastic beyond belief


marcyboy - 20/12/06 at 09:45 PM

when i was younger and my mum cooked sprouts to a mush .. i didn't rate them but now i'm a little less fussy and my tastes buds have changed... i like'em as long as there cooked properly...(sorry mum)

Right up there with roast parsnips


DarrenW - 21/12/06 at 09:28 AM

Cant get enough of them. Im cooking this year, got chestnuts ready for the sprouts. Pancetta to go with the peas. Whole garlic to go with roast spuds and parsnips (which will be roasted using goose fat) etc etc etc.

Don't know about Donut being a T total poff, but the man has a point! A few pints of Hen and a nice plate o'xmas grub and sprouts, and you get to watch whatever you want on the telly! Mainly, cause no bugger will come near you all day long!
