Carrots
Contrary to popular (or not so popular) beliefs, I am not a vegetable hater. Hey, I love my veggies just like any average health concious person would. It's just that there are some of them that i hate, the first ones that come into mind are carrots *yech*.
I never liked carrots. I threw up after eating one when I was a kid. Since then, I've been eating other more delectable vegetable dishes (Bicol express... Mmm...) What makes me wonder is, of all the kinds of veggies out there, why is it that only carrots have been turned into a variety of other products. There's carrot cake (which my relatives usually order for the sheer sake of making fun of me), and carrot juice. I mean, why only carrots? It isn't sweet or anything. Why not a broccoli cake? Or cauliflower muffins? Nope, it has to be the vegetable i hate the most, carrots.
Pfft... The universe is out to get me.

o for crying out loud, the universe is not out to get you! you're so OA.
remember what i said?
lack of betacarotene intake = mark bumping into things even in broad daylight!
so by shoving anything 'carrot' in your face, the universe is actually doing you a favor!
yes, it is.
it's saving the visually-impaired you from further humiliation....
and it's saving your friends from further humiliation as well *hahaha*
sarap kaya ng carrots!
kinkain ko ng hilaw nung bata ako!
If you want disgusting vegetables, i can think of worse:
okra (yech)
amapalaya (double yech)
@jaz:
Yes it is. Another evidence: 70% of the world is made of water and I CAN'T SWIM. ><;;
Still the promenade thing again huh? Manhid na ako dyan :P
I suppose carrots are the best sources of beta CARROTene... ><;; Oh well, I'll probably compensate by taking 5 tablets of centrum a day. Complete from A to Zinc! :D
@mike
oops later ko na post comment ko sayo.. nagstart na DOTA :D
hilaw eh noh X_X
depressing dude... barbaric :D sinasayang mo ung gift ni prometheus sa atin!
ok naman okra ah... prang sipon lang nga itsura ng juicy part nya. As for ampalaya.. yup! double yech :D
don't worry, you won't drown...
or have you forgotten that you have a built-in 'salbabida' around your waist, hmm? *bwahahaha*
i have nothing witty to say. just that, like mike said, there are alot worse vegetables out there. (ampalaya, i'm looking at you)
@jaz
2 words: six packs =P
Pretty soon, you'll be seeing me in those abflex infomercials on the home shopping network :D
@kabo
yeah.. in my heirarchy of vegetable blechiness, it's ampalaya, then carrots, then ummm... Hmmm wala na. Ampalaya and carrots are the only vegetables I don't eat. Btw, what is ampalaya in English? O.o
Asa ka. Sa ginagawa mo ngayong kain-tulog, impossible maging 6-packs yan.
And since your friend hasn't answered your question yet, i'll answer for him for the meantime...
ampalaya = bitter melon / bitter gourd
dag nabbit!!! naunahan nanaman ako!!
alam ko din na bitter gourd ung english ng ampalaya!
i wanna be a know-it-all too dammit!!!! huhuhuhu!!!
@mike
Hahaha. you'll get your turn someday. =P Pero 15 minutes of glory ka lang, kabo still is the undisputed know-it-all.
@jaz
Nice. I was supposed to give you a prize, pero inasar mo six packs ko eh. So no prize for you :P

Sisi amp. Ako vegetable guy ako since I was a child... my favorite vegetable when I was kid was ampalaya sabi ng parents ko.
Now d ko na alam, lht ng vegetable kinakain ko except celery which I can eat if only it doesn't make my head hurts... ewan ba parang alergic family ko doon lht kami nahihilo sa vegetable na yun.
Side Note: Carrots gives you better eye sight right. Amplaya, on the otherhand,lowers the sugar in your blood.
The next time we go out... i'll order ampalaya con karne for u guys. My treat of course!
