Another one here who detests brussels sprouts.
Pretty much everything else I will eat.
I actually like beets, with the right seasoning they taste awesome.
Here is my favourite beet recipe:
Peel and wash 3-4 beets and boil them in water with some salt and vinegar added to it.
Remove from the stove when hot. Drain and leave to cool completely in the fridge.
Slice the beets into round thin slices and place in a bowl.
Very finely chop 2 cloves of garlic. Add to the beets.
Sprinkle the beets liberally with oregano.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Thoroughly douse in olive oil and plenty of vinegar.
Serve and enjoy.
This does give you garlic breath but it tastes heavenly!

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
