sarcasm > other forms of humor

also, peeling asparagus is still retarded. If it needs to be peeled before you can eat it, you suck at picking out asparagus. thinner stalks FTW. and ALWAYS snap off the tough bottoms of the stalks. But hoops is 169% correct...peel asparagus and you might as well peel broccoli or celery or something. You have incisors for a reason.

Ok, I understand how to choose the better asparagus.  They aren't always available.  Also, I did mention the fact that we were picking them on the side of the road.  I didn't mean at a vegetable stand.  I mean they grow out of the ground on the side of the road.  They get tuff.  I'd rather eat peeled asparagus than no asparagus.

Don't you peel and eat the stems of broccoli? The woody layer is inedible, but if you peel it, the inside is good.

no, apparently you need to throw the stems away because you should expect nothing less than just broccoli flowers on your plate.
