For food not bombs this week, we used this strange vegetable, it was small, green, tasty, and shaped like a little beholder (of D&D fame). To be more precise, it was a green ball slightly larger than a kumquat, slightly smaller than a lime, and it had these little stalks sprouting up over the top of it, reaching straight up. It is peeled and cooked, but raw it had a vaguely potatoish taste, only slightly sweeter and ‘green’er.
Name that vegetable! (I honestly forget =)
I remember when we sold hedgeballs at our supermarket and everyone thought they looked weird, but I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to eat them (they repel spiders).
Yeah, definitely not that. We had to peel these things, but spiders would not have been scared. =)
is it brussel sprouts my vegan eating friend? 🙂
I don’t eat vegans. Or, at least, I haven’t yet. Do you know a cute one? =)
Not brussel sprouts, but I do believe it’s a relative.
