Got Broc?

There are three different kinds of students here at SCVi:

1. Kids who like broccoli - no matter what.

2. Kids with discerning broccoli palates.

3. Kids who think broccoli is part of a vast conspiracy to make them miserable.

The group 1 students were real troopers, especially since the broccoli was probably flash-frozen during the Clinton administration. The color was something that might be in the green family. In fact, the government used that color a LOT when painting military installations.

Group 2 are afficianados. They like their broccoli bright green, lightly steamed and approaching aldente. The fact that this offering sorely misses the Chef Dawn Smell Test is not lost on them. They reluctantly put a limpy stalk on their plate. Some of them actually ate it. I am certain the rest of them stashed it in an unsuspecting classmate's hood.

Group 3 pretended that the offending gustatory challenge was not meant for THEM, surely! Kelsey explained it this way: "Broccoli scares me."

I am not one for broccoli stalks but I ate them in the interest of our zero food-waste policy. My sacrifice meant nothing to Group 3.
