Andy_Copland 0 #1 February 13, 2008 Do they have any place in food? Crunchy is good but tasteless, so pretty pointless if you're not looking on the texture side.

marcandalysse 0 #2 February 13, 2008 same for jicama in mexican food... if you eat them fresh, not from cans, they will have a taste as well as a texture. mp "The reason angels can fly is that they take themselves so lightly." --GK Chesterton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #4 February 13, 2008 QuoteDo they have any place in food? Only for those who do not have enough real food. Go get a steak and potato, dude. Think of all those cowboys who are starving because you're not eating steak. <>My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

Jewels 0 #6 February 13, 2008 I like 'em if they come with some nice Kung Pao sauce all over them. Otherwise, they're sort of . . . well . . . like nibbling wood. Soft wood. Maybe balsa.TPM Sister #102 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Amazon 7 #7 February 13, 2008 You have to dmit it does make an interesting crunch when you are eating chinese food... which should have plenty of crunchiness to it.. but most place cook all the crunchiness right out of all the veggies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 35 #8 February 13, 2008 Quote totally pointless food... I agree with pops jumper.. go get a steak and a potato.. thats real food! Well the wife was needing to go on a diet, so we had steak strips laid in a salad of lettuce, tomatoes, red bell peppers, avocados with fresh grated parmesan cheese. Good stuff. But I'll take a big fat ribeye steak smothered in Dale's and chopped garlic.

Too true...and (unfortunately) true of MOST restaurants. The ones that DON'T boil or steam the veggies to mush are treasures!!Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

tigra 0 #10 February 13, 2008 I never make spinach dip without them, and pretty much anyone who has had my spinach dip thinks it is pretty damn good. I had to stop bringing it to the office pot lucks because it made the other "dip bringers" feel bad. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
