You Have to Eat Vegetables - Here's How

The first point is so, so important. People will spend hours marinating a steak but then serve it with mushy boiled broccoli. If you ate unseasoned boiled chicken every night, you'd probably start to think you disliked chicken.

I was raised on unappealing mush for years and thought I just hated vegetables. I’m on the autism spectrum and food textures have been a big hurdle. Once I started cooking my own food and got away from the cooking methods my parents drilled into my head I learned to love veggies a lot.

[@Rhaifha]

Same here. For me as a kid, vegetables came pre-cooked to death in a pot. Add to that my problems with textures due to autism and.. I was not having a good time with vegetables. I still have a few vegetables I avoid due to texture (like chickpeas and avocado), but going to university and being exposed to other people's cooking helped a lot! I just need to get better in the planning department.

[@OGSumo]

I think this is actually true for a lot of people, even those who don’t struggle with autism. With people’s first foray into veggie, like with trying anything new, you find you might not like some of it, but parents often force their kids to eat it anyway, entirely unable to change or explore other vegetables or methods of cooking. So people grow up just thinking they hate vegetables. But once you can be independent and explore different textures and flavors there is always something for everyone.

[@JessicaRuiz323]

Haha yeah. My mom has a tendency to overcook everything, and learning what I like/prefer has helped me diversify my diet. Still love her tho

Food texture is it for me too. Funny enough, for me to eat them I prefer them on the mushy side and hidden. For a lot of veggies, I can't _stand_ it when they're crunchy or have a firm texture to them yet hardly any taste. The only one I like normal is corn. Then there's some like avocado and eggplant that are plain disgusting taste-wise.

[@SuperMiIk]

I grew up in a "no-thank-you bite" household. There was always a vegetable on the plate. If I didn't want to eat it, fine. I just have to take one "no-thank-you bite" and I wouldn't have to eat the rest. The parameters were simple. It would have to be an honest forkful, and I'd have to chew and swallow. A brief transaction, and then no questions asked. Funny thing is, after three or four meals with that vegetable, sometimes I'd get a taste for the thing. The beauty of the paradigm was that even though it required me to try eating a vegetable, it gave me some sense of agency. It was a negotiation. And now there are very few vegetables I don't enjoy.

Do you have to eat vegetables? Technically no. But it doesn't mean you slam an 8oz steak 3x a day. Muscle meat lacks a bunch of vitamins you need to live. You need to eat a lot of organ meat if cutting veggies is a thing you want. But even then it's still not overly healthy. You won't keel over from vitamin deficiency, but your risk rate for heart disease will be much higher than even a high fat modern diet. That is unless you are very selective about where you get fat from. Lots of people dont wanna eat vegetables but when the alternative is eat small oily fish or blubber, eyeballs, and intestines.

I really appreciated the "delicate salads take up lots of room" take. I travel for work (meaning I'm on construction sites and in people's homes during the day), so I don't have a way to heat my lunch, or a convenient place to store large containers. A large salad also takes more time to eat, it seems, maybe because it's not something I can eat while driving, or because I try to skewer a little bit of everything on my fork for every bite. So, all of this adds up to mean that cold cut sandwiches tend to be the easiest thing for me to pack. I can make meat sandwiches the night before instead of the morning of, where as a veggie sandwich would get soggy if I made it the night before (something with hummus and sliced raw veg). BUT. I've been trying to make more veggie-centric main dishes in my lunch, and one of the more recent meals I've been making has been AWESOME. I can't remember where I got the recipe from or how I modified it, but I've been making fried tofu slices, with roasted portabello mushroom and sweet potato (cut on a bias into oval medallions, about as thick as a coin). I put all of this on a bed of cold soba noodles, topped with dipping sauce (I think it's called Tsuyu). I just looked online, and I think the recipe I used was from a website called foodiecrush? The trick for me was getting the sweet potatoes to the right texture. I actually messed them up the first time I made them, intending to use them in another dish, and ended up putting them in this cold noodle dish - SO, the trick is to roast your sweet potato medallions, and then to leave them in the oven after cooking to dry out while the oven cools down. You want them almost leathery, almost like jerky. That way, they soak up some of the noodle dipping sauce and reconstitute, but aren't mushy. They should have some "bite" to them. Anywho, I portion the noodles and veg and tofu and sauce out into 3-cup rectangular glass pyrex containers (the same size labeled as "food prep containers" at Kohl's or whatever).

I'm single so I just dealt with the gas for the first 2-3 weeks but eventually my body adjusted. It would start a couple hours after I ate the soup (10 pm) and last for about 10-12ish hours.

[@1997saltydog]

So fruit smoothies aren't good for you?

[@duolingoowl8294]

​@@1997saltydog it really depends on your overall diet and health goals. fruit smoothies, unlike fruit juice, still contain the fiber that fruit would if you just sat down and ate it. that being said, most people couldn't just sit down and eat the amount of fruit they'd put into a fruit smoothie. i think you can make a very well balanced fruit smoothie for most people by simply adding fat and protein to turn it into a complete meal; hemp hearts, seeds, nut butters, and protein powders are all good additions. you can also add greek yogurt but i don't do dairy. that'll make the smoothie more satiating and add additional nutrients. if you already eat a lot of fruit throughout the day, a fruit smoothie probably isn't something you should feel like you *have* to drink in order to be healthy, because you're probably already getting the nutrients it'd provide from the fruits themselves. i periodically struggle to include fruits into my diet for various reasons, in which case smoothies are really helpful for me. on the other hand, i basically don't consider something to be a complete meal unless it contains a vegetable, so i personally don't see any reason to put veggies in my smoothies, but if you don't eat a lot of veggies then you should consider adding a handful of spinach to the next smoothie you make. other factors to consider are your overall sugar intake. personally, i think that if you're already consuming a lot of sugar then there's probably other sources to cut back on before you start eliminating fruits from your diet. unless specifically advised otherwise by your doctor, you probably should keep eating fruits.

The thing that most carnivore diet “fans” don’t realize or practice is that shitty, cheap muscle-meat is not a replacement for veggies. A theory is that “carnivore” populations were so healthy because they mostly ate and craved the organs and crazy animal parts that we throw away, and the animals were eating a wild and broad assortment of food themselves. Think squeezing the bile out of gallbladders and whatnot (actually was/is a thing). Packed with micro nutrients and all the veggie byproducts, but it’s not a corn fed cheeseburger by any stretch. There’s a reason why lions and wolves eat the organs first, or exclusively. There’s also many reasons why a nice salad is a lot easier...

Thai and Koreans (if you like spicy anyway) know how to make a veggie their bitch while still celebrating the veg itself. W European cooking tends to use veg as mere background characters for a more complex dish or as a vehicle for a delicious sauce or cheese, Asians veg is more focused on simplicity and making the veg the star of the dish, but either way, both regions do veg REALLY well imo.

It honestly tasted better than the pork chops we would sometimes have, and I consider myself fortunate for having an upbringing that taught me to season my food before labeling any base food product as bad.
