Today on ITKWD David while demonstrating a pan pointed to brussel sprouts and called them "little green balls of death".  Then he said I'm sorry they have a name don't they.  Did I use my inside voice and take it outside?  Ha, it was pretty funny.

Lol!   It does sound funny, but this host is like my brother....seems to dislike veggies and other healthy foods and their physical appearances prove they are eating the wrong things!

That's quite an assumption to make about someone you do not know personally, just because he dislikes brussel sprouts.

@mom2four0418 @I don't know this host personally. Neither do you.   I think he seems like a nice guy during his presentations.  

what I "know" is that he's a big guy.   I also know what he looked like in his earlier years at QVC. The camera doesn't lie.

I hated Brussels sprouts as a child, but after having roasted Brussels sprouts as an adult, I could eat those little suckers all day!

@SurferWife   Same here!   I buy 2 pound bags of sprouts at Costco.  Little balls of health.

Roasted Brussels sprouts are great!!!  I don't cut mine in half.  I like Parmesan cheese on mine, DH likes Balsamic vinegar.

Re: David and Brussel Sprouts

I love Brussels Sprouts. I roast them with a little olive oil, fresh ground pepper and garlic. I could eat them every day.
