| “Eat your vegetables.” - Mom What do you hate more, vegetables or being overweight? I use to dislike vegetables. My mom would serve these horrible tasting string beans from a can, hard broccoli, and overcooked carrots. Also, the salads were iceberg lettuce, a bad tomato, some croutons and some bad tasting dressing. I’m not sure exactly when I had a delicious salad, but if salads and vegetables are prepared properly they can be delicious. Try a quality vegetarian restaurant with a friend who knows about the food. Some men think they’re not manly if they eat vegetables and to show their manliness will say how much they hate them. Saying you hate something makes it hard to try them. Change it to “I haven’t tasted good vegetables yet.” Don’t give up on vegetables. They’re too healthy and taste great when prepared properly. If you’re a guy and think salads are for girls, you’re in trouble. Salads are for people who are concerned about their weight and want to look great. |
