      Cover it in olive oil and salt. bake at 400 for 20 minutes, and trick your brain into thinking its amazing

            Love it

            Biking can be like a two calorie burn or do it fast (or up hills) and suddenly it’s somethin’ serious. But still pleasant, possibly beautiful…

            So the sense of speed is the fun part?

            I kinda tricked myself into liking running by making a game of how long I could put up with the discomfort and feeling out of breath. Now I no longer feel out of breath, and it sometimes feels actually… good?? I don’t know if I just became inured to the sensation, or if I’m just fitter.

        Is it a trick if it’s really amazing?

        Our sauteed with onions really good too. People who don’t like greens probably only know them boiled in water which washes the taste away.

        For any non-yanks reading: 400 degrees Fahrenheit is about 200 degrees Celsius, and this method is roasting, not baking.

      Are you kidding? I can always want to eat more broccoli than is advisable. I have to like hold myself back.

      For real though, you can “acquire” these tastes.
