I like okra. Want me to start a thread about it? Would that rock your world? ---

What is okra? I have never tried it. ---

It’s green. You probably wouldn’t like it. Myself, all of the dishes I tend to include okra in are so blazingly spicy that I don’t really have any clear idea about what okra actually _tastes_ like. It has a nice texture, though. ---

Okra is quite mild-tasting, somewhere between courgettes(zucchini) and mangetout(! -snow pea). I like corn. Aw hell, I like _food_ generally. ---

Nobody’d ever have guessed _that_, **Mangetout**. Damn, I wanna make a big ol’ pot of fall vegetable soup, now. [rumble] ---

**Muad’Dib,** would this meat be combined with beans and cheese in burrito form? 😃 -brianjedi ---

Okra has a bizarre texture, but truth be told, if you spice it up enough, who cares? ---

I, too, like meat. Okra, on the other hand, is one of the few vegetable that I won’t eat. Brussel sprouts are another item on that short list. I like soy products, such as Boca burgers, because of the taste. ---

Eeeeew. Okra is _slimy_. Yuck. Meat is good, though. Even elk, bear, deer, partridge and bunny meat is good. ---

I have it on good authority that Brussel Sprouts are grown in the moist, slimy hollow of Satan’s armpit. Mmm. Meat. Food of the gods. ---

Ah, meat. Meat, meat, meat. Pork! Pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork, pork. Yum. (I like saying pork as much as eating it.) And potatoes too. Can I have them mashed? [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-like-meat/143767.md?page=2)
