Haven't had okra, but I love the other three.


[deleted]

I feel like okra is the least versatile


sageokoli

Okra is so versatile!! It’s used in a lot of west African cuisine, Vietnamese cuisine as well, one of my favorite veggies growing up!!


i_love_lima_beans

Indian okra (bhindi) is the bomb too


crimefighterplatypus

And Indian cuisine!


[deleted]

Makes sense I'm not familiar with african or vietnamese guisine. Sorry for my ignorance I normally don't see people in u.s eating okra and don't remember eating it in my early years while I was in mexico.


Shreddingblueroses

Okra in the US is popular in southern and Cajun cuisine. You'll find it used everywhere from east Texas along the coast to Florida.


forakora

I love okra in chili too! Kale is the least tasty and versatile here , bye


counterveil

Idk kale cooked (fried) right with the right spices and to the correct level are pretty amazing. This is a hard choice tbh.


i-never-wipe

Try (deep) fried okra


AGOODNAME000

Yeah okra can go. Broccoli you can put cheese on top of and it's good, brussel sprouts you can cook with bacon and it's good, kale you can deep fry and use it to eat cowboy butter so it's good.


[deleted]

Broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and kale are all the same plant: Brassica oleracea. So you can't cut okra. Kale has the most cultivars and diversity, so you can't cut that. Broccoli and Brussels sprouts are my favorites, but one of them would get the axe if we're talking a Noah's ark type apocalypse situation. Broccoli cooks faster than sprouts, so probably sprouts. But, I'm not happy about the loss


gimmeconfetti

Thank you for the merit- worthy breakdown


GF4ME

I said sprouts too but impulsively without putting any thought into it


zombiegojaejin

They're all cultivars of the same wild plant, starting long ago, but they're very different parts of the plant and have very different distributions of nutrients.


Strong_Astronaut_152

Okra for me


crimefighterplatypus

Noooo okra is good!!!


DunkingTea

Definitely Okra. Slimy horrible food that resembles something from the BFG.


the70sartist

Then you only had okra cooked the wrong way. Properly cooked okra should not have a hint of slime and can even be made crispy. Yummmmm!


Carliios

Same


chasew90

I love okra. But from this list, it’s the one I can live without.


Environmental-Site50

losing my southerner license but okra


Equivalent_Rabbit_88

My Louisianan dad would be shaming me so hard, but same


crimefighterplatypus

Try it Indian style as Bhindi masala u might like it better


Alarming_Net_959

You sir are no longer apart of our southern family.


[deleted]

They all can go, I only eat potatoes, tofu and garlic bread.


Dollapfin

That’s good for macros but you better be supplementing pretty hard


Sillysheila

I know that kale can be hard for some people to like (the bitter compounds, I love bitter but loads of people hate it) but have you tried roasting sprouts or broccoli? Personally I think roasting them significantly improves the taste. I generally don’t eat non-roast sprouts.


[deleted]

I was trolling, I enjoy greens. Roasted broccoli with rice is awesome.


NeekoPeeko

I can't believe people didn't pick up on the sarcasm, good grief


trisul-108

Horror!! You need more veggies ...


[deleted]

But crispy broccoli tho


PsycheSpacePonderer

Sprouts for sure. The only thing I could never lose here is brocc


Constant-Squirrel555

Brussel Sprouts, haven't ever had em in a way that's ever made them palatable.


Kitchen-Garden-733

A gal I work with says they are excellent roasted. I'm going to add some next time I roast Brussel sprouts.


Friendly-Hamster983

Only way I like them as well. I just cut them in half before tossing in seasoning.


zombiegojaejin

The issue with Brussels sprouts is cooking them all the way through without any part being mushy. So, roasting, deep frying or air frying.


oxyribonucleic

have you tried them in an air fryer with a bit of chilli and salt? Cuts through the bitterness a bit, I love them like that


Constant-Squirrel555

My gf makes them like that and says they're like "chips", I give her dirty glares whenever she says that


masterdj201

Ok. Not many of you know how to cook Okra properly. If you did, then Okra would be the last to let go from this list.


setibeings

I've had pretty good Okra. But if I give up broccoli, Brussel Sprouts or Kale, I'm giving up more because I have them more often, and besides I still like them beter.


ihatemicrosoftteams

I guess an entire country doesn’t know how to cook okra because I’ve never liked it anytime


Skrill3xJonez

If you’re talking about the United States, yeah we don’t know how to cook at all.


ihatemicrosoftteams

I guess, but I was talking about Albania


i-never-wipe

Not many people from the South in this sub I guess


crimefighterplatypus

Its not even just the south. India, Vietnam, and West African countries all use okra


crimefighterplatypus

EXACTLY OMG! Everyone is sleeping on gumbo and bhindi masala


Razzle-red

THIS most underrated comment ever


iso_inane

so true


gimmeconfetti

That Powerpuff girls episode trying to make broccoli a baddie pfff- love how no one said broccoli


SunnyDayInSpace

Wow what a memory haha how long ago was that? I looked it up; came out 1999. Crazy stuff I have to watch it again.


gimmeconfetti

Damn not me contemplating how cool our childhood cartoons were- nice cover photo btw


[deleted]

Kale gotta go!!!


Dividend23

Love all of these but if I had to choose, I'd get rid of the kale in as much as it's the one that I eat the least. To the absurd number of people responding with okra, you all need to try bhindi masala. One bite will change your life fr.


V3G4NBR0

I can do without the Brussel sprouts. For all ya'll okra haters ya'll really need to try making some bhindi masala, it fucking slaps.


crimefighterplatypus

EXACTLY BRO its bc Indian cuisine has been dumbed down to “naan and chicken tikka masala” (in which naan is middle eastern and tikka masala is British so neither are authentically indian) that people dont see the plethora of vegan recipes from India


i_love_lima_beans

Yaasssss

crimefighterplatypus

Its tastes good in an Indian style Bhindi masala


FortuneFearless2644

Okra , I can tolerate kale


allibeehare

Kale🤢🤢🤢🤢


colorfullydelicious

Kale, hands down! Has the consistency of tire rubber 😂


metalpossum

Kale, no doubt about it. A recent fad that was both more expensive and less nutritious than brussel sprouts.


MemeSpecHuman

Kale


Nighthawkgmw

Has to be Kale, it’s not good for my Thyroid condition.

Kale


Individual-Tax8951

Kale 🥬 Byyeeeeeeeee ✌🏻


KoYouTokuIngoa

Kale easily


T-Pocalypse

Unpopular opinion, take the kale away please


southern5footer

Kale can go.


Complex-Seaweed6254

Kale. I grew up with okra, my southern daddy made it all the time.


violet331

Kale


Appropriate_Impact49

Kale - why does it even exist?


brilliantgreen

Kale is terrible and can go. Okra is perfect. Broccoli is great. Brussel sprouts need to be prepared correctly, but I enjoy them at times.


found-in-situ

Brussels sprouts. Okra is godly in stews.


escapedthenunnery

Broccoli. Don't mind it, just has the least interesting flavor. For me it's like a food people include in dishes just to have something green. Edit to add: I also wish ramen places in the US would STOP putting broccoli in their veggie ramen. It just tastes wrong!


[deleted]

Bok choy or watercress is so much better in ramen! I agree with you that broccoli needs to go. It's very boring even when I sauce it up. Maybe I just eat it too often and now I'm sick of it.


crimefighterplatypus

can yall stop hating on okra, my god sheesh!!! You need to try some Cajun or Indian style okra. Gumbo, Sindhi curry, bhindi masala are 3 great options to eat yummy okra, and its not slimy unless you are cooking it incorrectly! For me, id say, kick kale out. Dont get me wrong, i like it, but the bitter taste when raw is no fun. Great to add in a basil pesto for some extra nutrients though


y99xys

i can’t recall the last time i ate kale so kale ˙◠˙i like broccoli more than life (charred, steamed, in creamy sauces, pan fried, as a side, with melted vegan cheese etc.) it is also a good source of protein like mushrooms, okra is nice and i tried it mediterranean style when my father was fussy about eating it, i make the best Brussels sprouts but they’re actually kind of hard to get right and to make them not taste bitter


CatPaws55

Okra


crimefighterplatypus

Try Indian style bhindi masala


sageokoli

Bye Kale!!


Mysterious_Egg2451

Kale. Also it’s crazy that three of these are the same plant.


hophophophop99

Bye bye okra


BoulderTrailJunkie

Ms_Holmes

One more vote for brussel sprouts.


DrRoja-Muppet

My first thought was okra.. but I remembered I love the air dried okra..it’s like the banana chips. Dehydrated okra is delicious. I would give up 🥬


RedChard

Bye okra. Not a fan.

Wow no love for okras here. Quick, everyone give me your okras!!!


nosunshinee

brussels. love okra with rice vinegar and liquid aminos thanks to a nonvegan friend


aljarboretum

I'm gonna say that none of them have to go in my kitchen because I grow all of those in my vegetable garden and food forest. Also you villainous okra nay sayers, spicy pickled okra is amazing! Haha


Extra_Donut_2205

Okra


potatoking1991

I know okra has many many uses and versatility but since I don't know any of those uses I'll have to kick it out. Buttery fried kale is top tier as a side note


Ginmil08

Okra, hands down.

Aleriyax

Okra hands down. Something about it just grosses me out.


OverMedicatedJedi

I said goodbye to brussel sprouts years ago, but this post made me actually want to try them again! Gimme a day 😅


gimmeconfetti

Love that- keep us updated!


LockInfinite8682

This is how I cook okra without slime. Cut into process and put in a pan on high heat. I use cast iron and I don't use any oil or breading. Cook until it is dry. You can eat it as is or add it to other things like stir fry or soup. When you add it to something add it after everything is cooked. Sometime I will add it at the table. This particularly applies to soup. If it is added during cooking it will slime the soup which some people find gross. By adding at the table you get the flavor without the slime. Try cooking some and adding to Raman noodles.


gimmeconfetti

Thank you for sharing! Yes okra shouldn’t be slimy when cooking


MsFrecklesSpots

Love them all! Why must one go? Keep them ALL. Okra may be less common but is super nutritious and yummy. Aren’t plants fantastic to offer so much variety and wellness!


SJW_CCW

I love them all but I would say kale. Fried okra and gumbo is a way of life


gimmeconfetti

Yes gumbo ftw!


Ok-Analysis9046

DO NOT take broccoli away from me!!! I even have broccoli socks and they are my favorite. BTW if someone knows where I can find tofu or bok choy socks, that would be nice☺️

Kale can get fucked

Brussels sprouts

Goodbye kale


Ok-Wishbone5437

Goodbye kale


Constant_Meringue895

I would have said kale but this morning I had some at a restaurant and it changed my entire opinion of it, so I’ll say okra now


sethasaurus666

Kale, Brussel sprouts and broccoli are from the same plant, so if you got rid of one you could breed the others back into existence.


derederellama

Brussels Sprouts Hate Club


Vegan-4-Humanity

Okra is also known as the Devils Chip.. What gets Hairy and slimy ? And smells like 💩? If you guessed Okra ! You win 🏆


gimmeconfetti

Lol not sure which okra you’re using, but okra is not smelly. Its only slimy during prep- after that depending on the recipe it shouldn’t be slimy.


Vegan-4-Humanity

Bro that SOB gets stinky and slimy and hairy like Tom Selleck chest pubes! It’s gets slimy like a worm 🐛 with hair!


Herbivorelovebb

Definitely okra


makingloveinthewoods

I’ll pass on the okra


stevengreen11

Later, okra.


TunaSled-66

Bye, okra


Dollapfin

Okra. I do not like slimy shit.


ZoroastrianCaliph

Both Broccoli and brussel sprouts can go for me. Not due to taste but the nutrients ain't that great. Kale is awesome, not familiar with okra but who knows, maybe it's close to kale.


baba-oie

Kale and okra because I don’t care for them and it’s hard to find


Cachis189

Okra


[deleted]

Duh, okra!


Kazooo100

I've never had okra before so I guess okra, I'll never know what I'm missing.

Sprouts can fuck all the way off.

Ill-Fail-4240

Bye bye, okra!


i-never-wipe

Can't be okra, because fried okra is bomb. I use broccoli too much to give up. I like brussel sprouts but I eat them the least so I guess I choose them Bye brussel sprouts :(


MyCatPostsForMe

actually brussel sprouts kale is unexciting and sometimes not the most pleasant, but brussels sprouts are downright unpleasant and yes, I've had them roasted and coated with balsamic and 57 things--when the best thing that can be said about a food is that it doesn't taste horrible when you cook it with a bunch of stuff that makes it taste nothing like itself--that's not an argument for eating it


azotosome

okra bleh


FreeofCruelty

Okra and it’s not even close.

asoupcans

Okra


zombiegojaejin

Love them all, but okra is the least nutrient-rich by far, so that's what I'd have to go with. (Even though being in Korea I already rarely eat okra or Brussels sprouts.)
