Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kale, Cabbage, and Brussels sprouts all evolved from the same plant species: The Wild Mustard Plant. Farmers in different areas just chose to selectively breed different portions of the same plant. Broccoli was bred from choosing large buds and large stems. Cauliflower was just the flower bud. Brussels sprouts, Cabbage, and kale were all leaves from different portions of the plant.

So albino broccoli is really a pretty close description.

Being fat has nothing to do with liking salads. You probably just don't know how to make a good dressing!

Fr fr, I like the cauliflower wings as well.

This is the thing that really bothers me about the cauliflower substitutions - that it's being used as a substitute for foods that are meant to offer macronutrients. Cauliflower on it's own has extremely low calories. It's meant to be eaten for it's micronutrients and unique plant compounds. It does not provide enough macros to sustain a person, so if someone were eating a lot of cauliflower in place of their macro-sources they would be putting themselves into a starvation state.

However if any forms of fat and oil are used in it's preparation, then it might no longer even have the weight loss benefit that might come from that.

I just got food poisoning last weekend from cauliflower wings and I still support tf out of this take. I will never eat at that same place but my love of deep-fried cauliflowers does not abate!

Or fry it to oblivion. I constantly make this mistake when I order takeout, in my mind they just put tofu pieces into the sauce, but no, it's always that soggy overfried tofu.

I love tofu, I don't love cooking it (unless it's scrambled).

Now soy curls? There's an award winning ingredient.

I'd argue that tofu is way better than most meats.

I’m pretty tolerant of most foods but Brussels sprouts are disgusting. It’s one of the dozen or so foods I dislike, and despite trying every couple years, they’ve never caught on for me. They remind me of cabbage which is another one of the dozen. Oddly, I really enjoy fermented cabbage be it sauerkraut or kimchi. Cauliflower is decent but I’ll agree it’s pretty bland at best.

Agreed, It’s so bland on its own. That’s why it’s a great substitute for rice or chicken or whatever, because you only taste what you add to it. People don’t like cauliflower, they like batter, sauce, seasonings, etc

If you're not drenching it in home made cheese sauce, then you have given it a real try.

Dead serious. This is the cauliflower steak technique: https://www.wholesomeyum.com/cauliflower-steak/

The cabbage I just chop into small pieces and toss with EVOO, salt and pepper and throw into the oven for an hour or so. There are more complex recipes like this too: https://www.feastingathome.com/braised-cabbage/

Add turmeric, chili powder, cumin powder, some garam masala then grill or braise it

Are you telling the truth? Where can I find such recipes?

What?

It really pretty good if you cook and season it well
