Each vegetable has a place on a Christmas plate.

Sprouts will cause the big debate

Can you eat them? is it clear

Unless there is a honey sheer.

Let them have a calmer taste

escape the sin of waste

never going to win

they’ll probably end up in the bin.

  It is a bit like marmite, you either like them or you hate them. I like marmite, but on the fence with sprouts.

    I hate marmite, can’t even stomach the smell, but Hubby loves it, so I bought him a jar for Christmas. I have been known to put some on toast for him, but holding my breath and at arms length!
