Many moons ago I worked the night shift at the local hospital children's psychiatric ward. One of the patients would stay up all night long telling me about broccoli balls and freight trains flying through the sky.
It was ~not~ a boring job.

no crawdaddies on the plains?
wrong.
they are in the irrigation canals.
what you do is tie a piece of bacon to a piece of twine. toss it in the water. after a bit, pull it up. a crawfish will come with it.
you put him in a bucket.
you keep doing this till you got a meal/
only takes a 2'' strip of thick bacon.

People Pa-leeeeease, let 'er go!
However, Now that it's been regurgitated...I did roast some broccoli flowers with a bit of Italian dressing a few days back. A great compliment to the lumpy mashed red spuds and marinaded beef short ribs. Yum!

Made an easy decision for lunch.

Broccoli is not close to spinach! Remember what Popeye the sailor said!

We had a HUGE broccoli casserole, as well as other great side dishes, for Easter. I also like broccoli and cheddar soup, and broccoli mixed with cauliflower. Mmmmm, mmmm, good!

Broccoli and hollandaise. The only way to fly.
No, no, no.
A thousand times no.
Let the evil "b" word thread die it's well-deserved death. No zombie broccoli, please.

I'm thinking about planting some broccoli. I heard the best times to plant it are in the spring or fall. Fall is coming up. Any advice on planting?
Yes. In the dead of winter. Plant as deep as possible; if you're nearing the earth's core, keep going. Refill with plenty of salt scattered liberally as the deep deep hole is refilled. Daily watering with Roundup is a must. When harvest approaches, add a couple gallons of gasoline and ignite from a distance.
Die foul thread, DIE!

Hmmmm, Zombie thread about broccoli.
Brings this to mind.

Combine this with the pickled eggs and sardines in mustard sauce and bury it deep!

Depression Era food.
My depression era experiences were much like yours.
My folks required me to eat all food that was put on my plate, even if not my favorite kind.
They required Food to be consumed in timely fashion, and Sarcasm Wasn't tolerated.
These rules taught people of the 1930s depression era, to be frugal, tolerant, and grateful.
Many folks learned, and profited, from those rules, but about an equal number didn't.
The end results?
I like broccoli, and chuckle at Mark Twain's description of it; "broccoli is cabbage with a colledge education".

I've grown broccoli for years. It's a good one to grown because it keeps producing after you harvest, just progressively smaller florets.
I grew cauliflower for the first time this year. A lot of work for a single head, but tasty none the less. Don't know if I'll do that again next year though.

Gassiverious foods.
Broccoli, a vegetable, and Dried apricots, a fruit, are the most "gassiverious" foods that I've ever ingested.
After a helping of broccoli, or dried apricots, it's necessary for me to carry ballast, like a hot air balloon, just to remain on the ground.
As a word of caution, I'd dissuade the use of those two foods together. It would be extremely difficult to predict the outcome. I fear it would be highly explosive.
I might add, that both of those foods, despite their "gassiveriousness", are just delicious.
