We are not talking about Mexican food here - we're discussing
cauliflower. And I can't help it if your delicate taste buds are
affronted by the taste of cauliflower, broccoli, and other members of
the species Brassica oleracea. It all tastes good to me. Maybe you
aren't cooking it properly.

You want to know what I think tastes bad? I'll eat pretty much
anything, but I don't care much at all for things that are brined.
Dill pickles, olives, capers - they all taste so sour to me that I
don't like eating them at all.
