Who thinks that Brussels sprouts are (a) foul (b) tolerable but wouldn't choose to eat them or (c) think they're wonderful?

Wonderful. Even 60 years ago, when they were far more bitter than now to some people, I'd eat them raw when they were being trimmed for cooking. Christmas Supermarket Secrets tonight explained why; some people don't taste the bitterness, some taste it very much. It's genetic in us.
Coincidental that you say that, Fred, when I was a kid I loved to eat them raw however the tasted bitter cooked but now I'm errrrrrm older they don't seem to taste bitter.
