Broccoli belongs to the cabbage family. I do not like either.
I never knew that! Do you like any other members of the cabbage family? I quite like broccoli.
I do not. Broccoli comes from an Italian word meaning "the flowering crest of a cabbage."
Interesting! Does Broccoli hail from Italy? Or is it grown worldwide?
It is the result of breeding of cultivated Brassica crops int the Mediterranean in the 6th century.
