Hate them with a vengeance - made to eat them when I was small I don't think they were ever meant for human consumption wouldn't touch them now that I have grown up

Yes, like them as long as they are not overcooked. 12mins on the boil max.

It all depends how they're cooked.
If they're only JUST done they taste delicious but if they've been boiled until they're really soft and mushy they taste horrible.

They're okay as long as they're fresh - which they usually are these days. Back when I was a kid it was common to find the occasional manky sprout and they are foul.

I actually eat a few raw when I get them. Mind you I'll eat almost any vegetable raw. I often use spare veg from the weekend in my packed lunch for work. About the only ones I don't eat raw are potato and asparagus.

The problem with sprouts is whn they are overcooked.

Its a god idea to cut a cross in each sprout ensure short cooking time and even cooking

How about cooking them with bacon and chesnuts??
Would that make them more palatable for you?

No, it really isn't.

I got 740, and even at this, they're coming very fast. I can't understand how the first poster achieved 990. I would have liked to have seen a screenshot.
