BROCCOLI is an ITALIAN word. So why don't they use it in PIZZA.

Tony Bloom's £90million investment on Brighton and Hove Albion would have purchased him 53,741,428kg's of BROCCOLI at Sainsburys. If he purchased said BROCCOLI online, it would have taken 19,000 lorries to deliver it to his home address*





*if he picked the time slot 7am-9.30pm it would have been undeliverable as there werent enough drivers available to deliver the BROCCOLI

Thats some good flair BROCCOLISING there Brett.

Were Tony to boil this entire delivery of BROCCOLI in one go, he would need a saucepan the size of HONITON, and more water than the average rainfall for November in CARDIFF.

don't worry, i see what you've done, just a simple missuse/act of lazyness in regards to correct use of the quote function.

The expunging is perfectly VALID I'm afraid.
There are only 2 RULES to this game, and you have blatantly broken one of them. I refer the gentleman to the opening post on this thread.

Broccoli is often confused with calabrese but although both are from the brassica family, broccoli has a stronger taste and is a much harder crop to grow.
The supermarkets have helped to confuse the issue of what is broccoli and what is calabrese by calling both by either name. The simple thing to keep in mind is that broccoli is an over wintered crop but calabrese produces its crop the same year before winter. Even the seed suppliers blur the lines though!
The flavour of calabrese is milder and much preferred by many to sprouting broccoli and it is an easier crop to grow.

That`ll impress vegster and the rest of the sad allotment growing boys.

Eating Broccoli can give the consumer a false sense of intelligence in a subject where previously they have shown little or no knowledge.
