Then all the rest

Except broad beans - can't stand them, or the smell of them cooking. Suitable as animal feed only.

The only broad beans worth eating are those straight from the field, podded and cooked (lightly). Anything frozen, tinned, or otherwise processed is inedible (in my opinion).

No, not any broad beans. My dad used to grow the things, and IMO they're just as horrible straight off the plant!

Animal feed only.

Now a pea, pepper or potato straight off the plant ......

Ignoring the distasteful jokes milling around my mind I'd have to say my favourite vegetable is turnip, mashed up with a knob of butter and plenty of pepper.
 
Peas and sweetcorn mixed together. Doesn't even need butter; just a little margarine and a pinch of salt.

Third place goes to carrots... though prefer them buried in something else like a stew.

Free-wheeling into oblivion...
raw carrots
petit pois (can't stand mushy or processed)
sweetcorn
chillis (are these a fruit ?)
spinach
broccoli
watercress (mmmm, peppery)


I like pretty much any vegetable, but not if it's overcooked. Blanched or raw is the way to go.
