Brussel sprouts are awesome, especially when roasted.
I read an interview a while ago with someone in the vegetable business who told that due to selective breeding for commercial marketability, the vegetables you get in supermarkets today, including Brussel sprouts, are sweeter and less pungent than the ones you would get 15-20 years ago. This means that if you've had them once and thought they were too strong tasting you might actually like them today.
Bonus info: In some languages Brussels sprouts are called "rose cabbage".
as a kid i was tricked into thinking brussel sprouts sucked by harry potter so that's one way rowling's slighted me personally
