Turnips
 

To me, the flavor of turnips hints at brussels sprouts. To my buddy,
broccoli (and not as a negative thing - he's not a broccoli hatah). Yeah,
I realize they're related.

What say you?

To me, there is no hint of brussel sprouts.
My test is this: If I think of turnips, I salivate.

If I think of brussel sprouts, I think, "Ok, I'll eat them." I never search
out brussel sprouts, but I do turnips.

Turnips blow. I can't stand them. I can't stand sprouts, either.

Well, I like turnips. Raw ones anyway. Don't like broccoli or brussels
sprouts.

I love both, but I don't think they resemble each other in flavor.
