cool, thanks!
I love vegetables. While there may be some I like more than others, I'd try anything once. I love broccoli, carrots, green beans, squash, corn (especially sweet L.I. grown corn), anything that you can put in a salad... I like that having a vegetable as a side dish prevents me from overeating things like pasta (which is very easy to overeat). I prefer fresh vegetables (from local farm stands), but due to time restraints, I use frozen veggies most of the time. Canned veggies are not allowed in my house - none of us will eat them. blech.
I have never had brussel sprouts, but I'd try them if someone made them for me. Same goes with lima beans. I remember having them in a mixed vegetable thing my mom used to make. It had lima beans, carrots and something else. I'd pick out the limas, their reputation preceded them and I assumed I'd hate them.
I am not sure what the daily allowance of vegetables is, but I try to have them at least once a day. If I remember to drink my daily V8, then I am lucky and have more than one serving of veggies that day.

and apparently I have already replied to this thread
are any veggies good for promoting a better memory?

Lima beans? Can't say I like them, but I don't hate them. If someone makes something with them, I'd try them.
Brussel Sprouts? Never had them. I hear they have a bad rep for being smelly.
