I'll wait until they start to go woody before doing soup. I just like them roast when they are reasonably young and fresh.

Can you compost them? Ruddy awful things in my opinion, they’re like celery in so much as if you touch the damn things the stench sticks for days on your hands and you lot are talking about eating them Heathens

I'm betting that when you were a young un your mum had to hide your peas under your mashed potato to trick you into eating them. I'm also passionate about the humble sprout.

Sprouts, now you’re talking! I could eat those all day although the wife would probably kill me if I did (that if the fumes didn’t do for her first that is )

Sprouts are the long buried testicles of the jolly green giant.

Sprouts and beer have necessitated many a long walk in order to pollute the great outdoors with noxious fumes. Failing that blame the dog. How about sprout tops? They're getting harder to find these days if you don't grow your own, I love em.
