As a standard rule I am not a fan of Brussels Sprouts*.
I have never voluntarily consumed them. I have only, 5 prior occasions eaten a few, to appease my Mother-in-law, because I'm a very good Son-in-law. Generally there are 4-5 on my plate at Thanksgiving or Christmas and that's about it. That's as far as I'll go.
That all changed tonight because I not only ate Brussels Sprouts of my own volition, but it was basically because I found a recipe on Buzzfeed that contained them, and the pics looked so good I insisted Marcel make the dish.
Not only was it delicious, but he's going to make it again this weekend! And next time he's going to make it spicier!
I can't say that I will become a lover of B.S. but I'm willing to continue to give them the benefit of the doubt that they can be a part of a delicious meal.

Mushrooms however remain on my Do Not Eat List, and I do not foresee any change where they're concerned...

* Is it just me? I always thought they were called Brussel Sprouts... or at the very least, Brussel's Sprouts. Who knew?! Eat a great meal and learn something at the same time! Win - win I say.
