Okay, dont be shy now. Who as a child or even now did not like food called vegetables? When I was a child,Mom always trick us (my brother and I) that if we did not eat up the vegetables we will had ugly wives when we grow up. I like vegetables since I was a child. I love carrot, spinach, cucumbers, bean, broccoli etc etc. My fav vegetables had to be Potato! I love potato cause we can do so much variation of it. Like baked potato, french fries, potato chips,chicken soup with potato etc. I just love to eat any dish with potato. Not to mention potato is cheap and healthy. (Except for the fast food french fries and snacks) How about you? Whats your fav vegetables?

I really like potatoes and corn. There are some many different ways you can prepare and eat them! When I was younger I would only eat broccoli if it was covered in cheese and cheese only.

My favorite vegetable is the potato. Its great to serve in many different ways. I enjoy baked potatoes and lately have been eating them dipped in applesauce. Its the one vegetable my parents didn't have to force me to eat.

I pretty much love all types of vegetables. Especially raw green beans and snow peas! Broccoli and cauliflower are great either alone or on salads. During summer I love lots of salads and plenty of greens. Also love cabbage and brussel sprouts. A tip I found off of Yahoo front pages reguarding food; a low carb form of mashed potatoes. If you already like cauliflower, then you are a head of the game! You steam a head of cauliflower, or in microwave with a little bit of water until cooked, then put in either a food processor or blender with some milk and butter like you do with mashed potatoes. Puree up until smooth. I've tried this and really love them instead of real mashed potatoes. Just wanted to add that comment!

I love greeens of any type. I think I love swiss chard and mustard greens the best. I just love the clean flavor of them all. I do love the potato. It is so variable. It can be used in anything. My mom used to even make a candy with mashed potato, powdered sugar and peanut butter. Yum!

I don't really like vegetables when I was young. I was a meat-lover 100%! These days I eat a lot more vegetables than anything else. Either my mom was changing my diet in secret (I am gullible like that) or I have grown too old to chew meat? Maybe Anyways, my favorite veggies would have to be beansprouts, spring onions, broccoli, potatoes, radish, carrots, caulifower, beans, tomatoes, pumpkin. Always on my mom's list is potatoes. I like potatoe soup, I will mash the potatoes up till the soup is thick and creamy. And I want demands spring onions in all of my soup!

I have way too many favourite vegetables to name. I like all vegetables. Right now I'm eating a sandwich at The Secon Cup with cucumbers, green peppers, and lettuce on it, as well as ham and cheese.

Do you know what street I live in, my house number, and my telephone number? Then I have no reason to be shy and if you decided to give your real name on the internet, it was not wise. I have always liked vegetables, raw carrots, broccoli, corn on the cob. I did not like asparagus and cauliflower, but not because the veggies themselves, but because everyone was drowning them in cheese. I liked sweet potatoes but not potatoes that much. I guess I am not a potato person. Oh and I love tomatoes, but technically tomatoes are a fruit and I really love beans, string beans, green beans, romano beans, french cut beans.

My absolute favs are asparagus and artichoke. Of course they would be the most expensive veggies in the store, so I only get to eat them once in a while. BUT I could literally eat nothing other than a big plate of asparagus or a steamed artichoke with lemon butter for dinner! Mmmmmmmmm...............
