It'll go dark after a long time at any temperature. I gave my parents a bottle several years ago and it was dark as barbecue sauce before the old coots trusted it enough to dig it out of the back of the fridge to try it. Surprise! They liked it.

Interesting. Do you think it's just due to oxidation, like when a cut apple turns brown?

Sandbox Jesse, Monday, 5 December 2011 21:17 (twelve years ago) link

I'm sure that's it. I'd buy them a new bottle, but they'd fuss at me for wasting money.

Crazy coworkers are forever bringing in soups & casseroles to kiss-ass the managers...crockpots are on the other side of my cubicle.

Today = broccoli cauliflower soup, I hate both of these vegetables so much

HELP ME I AM IN HELL

VegemiteGrrrl, Monday, 5 December 2011 21:41 (twelve years ago) link

if one of my employees brought me a crock pot full of soup, I would make them eat some of it in front of me to make sure it wasn't poisoned

OH NOES, Monday, 5 December 2011 21:45 (twelve years ago) link

it's pretty much every day...some are good but most of the time it's like, "Um you know that we have homes & food of our own, right?"

The worst was the day of "seafood stew"...stunk the whole area out, I felt nauseous all day

VegemiteGrrrl, Monday, 5 December 2011 21:47 (twelve years ago) link

what if yr employee had already consumed the antidote xp

dayo, Monday, 5 December 2011 21:49 (twelve years ago) link

well then, fairplay to that employee and I hope they enjoy the stress and ulcers that go with my position

haha! i totally do this when i bring food to students. i always eat it in front of them and make a joke about it not being poisoned.

also broccoli soup should be forbidden in office atmosphere -- waaaay too reeky

I eat broccoli every week and have never known it to be reeky

all those cruciferous vegetables start to give off sulfurous odors after they've cooked x amt of time -- I try to never prepare enough broccoli or cabbage to have leftovers.

William (C), Monday, 5 December 2011 22:01 (twelve years ago) link

exactly
overcooked broccolis are extremely powerfully reeky
freshly lightly cooked broccolis are tasty (not as tasty as they are raw though imo)

recently deposed application inspector for the (league of women voters), Monday, 5 December 2011 22:04 (twelve years ago) link

Nope, sorry, they still smell bad and taste bad when lightly cooked.

Christine 'Green Leafy Dragon' Indigo, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:05 (twelve years ago) link

Steaming brocolli should be mandatory by law.
Cabbage leftovers are not too bad if they're placed in the fridge asap (aftter they've cooled down a bit).

yes this is the real (snoball), Monday, 5 December 2011 22:06 (twelve years ago) link

broccoli is poison & should be outlawed, cooked or raw. Nation of VGrrl frowns on it.

VegemiteGrrrl, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:07 (twelve years ago) link

wait wait wait a poster whose display name includes 'Vegemite' is trying to argue that broccoli is stinky? ?_?

60 seconds of steam makes broccoli sweet and precious

steamed broccoli also helps block cancer

OH NOES, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:26 (twelve years ago) link

cancer can't even handle the smell.

sir thermo of thinwall, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:27 (twelve years ago) link

the farting drives it away

OH NOES, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:29 (twelve years ago) link

steamed broccoli could give hour long orgasms and glorious shiny stools and cure whatever but it would still taste like the worst kind of ass and I refuse to eat it. hmph

VegemiteGrrrl, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:30 (twelve years ago) link

many xps - that was me with the gone over Siracha! Haha we do not use enough condiments it seems.

thejenny, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:33 (twelve years ago) link

I would consider eating the worst kind of ass for an hour-long orgasm. Well, I would have considered it 20 years ago when my heart was strong enough to survive an hour-long orgasm.

William (C), Monday, 5 December 2011 22:34 (twelve years ago) link

broccoli is fucking delicious

step hen faps, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:38 (twelve years ago) link

^^^ real talk

OH NOES, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:43 (twelve years ago) link

save this talk for vegetables that deserve it, like okra

OH NOES, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:43 (twelve years ago) link

okra is the most vile vegetable

dayo, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:44 (twelve years ago) link

Your opinion is wrong.

thejenny, Monday, 5 December 2011 22:49 (twelve years ago) link

xp vile indeed - it's so watery and mushy inside, and so tasteless

yes this is the real (snoball), Monday, 5 December 2011 22:52 (twelve years ago) link

Okra isn't as good as broccoli, but it's good. And you can cook it as long as you want and nobody's going to say "what is that horrible smell"

No, it wasn't! It was Katie.

I love: broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, visits to Yellowstone Nat'l Park, and most of all: RUTABAGAS. FUCK YES.

Sandbox Jesse, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 01:58 (twelve years ago) link

!!! I did the same thing! I thought you were witness to my shame, but it must have been Jeff.

You know what I like? Parsnips. That's a good root vegetable.

thejenny, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 02:04 (twelve years ago) link

parsnips are prtty gr8

remy bean in exile, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 02:10 (twelve years ago) link

Leave town with an orange, and pretend you're laughing at it. (Trayce), Tuesday, 6 December 2011 02:58 (twelve years ago) link

^^^ dead to me, fyi

VegemiteGrrrl, Tuesday, 6 December 2011 03:09 (twelve years ago) link

I do not are for broccoli 95% of the time but I will say that roasted broccoli is really good. Also, I like the stems much better than I like the bushy tops.
