Vegetables are one of those foods people either love or hate. The problem with hating our green friends is if you aren’t eating vegetables, your diet’s lacking in fiber and antioxidants. Like Mom always said, “they’re good for you!”
So what’s a veggie-hater to do? Play the happy healthcare host, Mr. Divabetic’s new food game, ‘Serve, Taste or Trash!’ and see if other people share the sentiments about similar fruits and vegetables. You might be surprised by the results. In the game, you’re given three choices of fruits and vegetables. You must decide which one you’d serve, which one you’d taste and which one you’d trash.
Before you decide to “trash” a veggie for good, why not try to eat it raw? Raw veggies can be more appetizing than their cooked counterparts to people who aren’t crazy about vegetables. The flavors of raw veggies can be milder than those of cooked ones. And the texture is crispy, rather than mushy.
Mr. Divabetic is the happy host of Diva TalkRadio, a free online and mobile podcast channel, where tens of thousands of fans, followers and listeners turn to laugh a little and learn a lot.
