My only problem with broccoli is that it has become very hard to find it with the stems. I can usually only find the crowns! I want the whole thing, darn it!

Projecting problems onto poor broccoli puts us on the slippery slope of wanting Bacon Milkshakes from Jack-in-the-Box. (Made without bacon, but with a bacon flavored syrup.)

Broccoli has no problems (when cooked correctly).
