    I’ve had them. Well. We bought some and the very next day they were already limp and wet and grody. So maybe next batch will be better?

    You never thought having the same standardized food throughout the year everywhere on the continent is actually weirder?

    Yeah, my mom grows carrots in a variety of colours, not just the new orange one that’s become so common. Also grows blue potatoes, purple beans and whatnot, because she has more fun with more colourful food.

    Dark heirloom tomatoes are pretty neat too.

        The texture issue is with cooked carrots. However, I also don’t like how carrots taste. Fresh fruits and vegetables in general, actually. Literally the fresher they are, the more they taste like themselves, so I’m one of the only people alive who prefers vegetables from fast food places 🙃

        mushrooms

        I feel you on the mushroom texture, but still, cooked mushrooms are my favorite “”“vegetable”“” by a country mile. Like the texture sucks, but it’s a savory vegetable. It’s the cool vegetable. The rest “taste like veggies” to me. 🤮 Like I really owe mushrooms an apology for not eating them for the first half of my life.

          Wow yea that is a frustrating position to be in. When you have a taste that is physically unpleasant, it really makes it inedible. Worse if others can’t taste it, as I feel half don’t believe it could taste different.
