I mean they’re cool, but they’re not that cool.
They’re only rad-ish.
How dare you…take my dam upvote

Don’t suppose you’re actually a beaver?
I was using swipe typing and knew it was wrong when reading it. Then I was like fuck it and hit post anyway like a fucking madman. Felt good.
That was way more clever than it had any right to be… Get out!
When prepared well I find them radishing.
Too many claims, too little sources to back it up; did big radish write this?
Although sulforaphane research on cancer has been ongoing for many years, there is no good clinical evidence to indicate consuming sulforaphane-rich vegetables or dietary supplements provides any effect. Wikipedia
Hmm
The fact that this post continues to stay up is an indictment of Lemmy moderation
Yeah, this is the second post I’ve seen today regarding radishes.
Big Radish is on the move.
Just wait until you hear from Big Daikon.
big radish
They’re called daikon.
The leaves are edible too,I use them in various recipes
The leaves are edible too,
I actually didn’t know that
And they’re by far the easiest vegetable to grow yourself, so much so that being called a ‘radish farmer’ is an insult.
They’re easier than zucchini? Does that make keeping radishes from taking over their entire plots actually kind of difficult or do they just grow perfectly only where you plant them?
The latter. But don’t plant anything else nearby. The grow damn fast and shadow everything around them.
I would still mess it up.
Not really it is those wascally wabbits and deer. Poor soil too.
Also one of the few foods that give me inexplicable instant acid foaming back up from my stomach. I’ll eat habaneros for giggles, no problem, but a single one of those little round red monsters in a salad and I’m out.
contain vitamin C
Basically all plants do. Do radishes contain unusually much of it?
improve blood pressure
Higher or lower?
Improve
Instructions unclear, circulatory system now has a refrigeration cycle
That would be amazing, what with the climate change and all…
Higher or lower?
Sideways
Flips your sistolic and diastolic, just for fun
Thanks for reminding me to buy radish seeds. Radishes grow pretty quickly and yes, you can roast them and they are delish-- after roasting are less peppery but still good. I want to know if Daikon radishes also have these same properties.
Daikon do! Some varieties of radish go from seed to “ready to harvest” in as little as 3 weeks. They’re also great for nutrient cycling and breaking up dense soils in preparation for other plantings, Daikon does a particularly good job as they grow deeper than many varieties. Even when planted around other things they grow low to the ground so they rarely directly compete for light.
I normally plant at least 2 waves of radishes in my garden to start and end the season.
If you get really big daikons, you should try scalloped daikon radishes, it’s my new go-to during the season when I get overwhelmed with large ones.
They also make your farts smell like rotten eggs if you eat too many of them.
Sold
really?
raw? I’ve been eating radishes for years - the red ones mostly - and haven’t had this.
I certainly have broccoli farts tho, and asparagus pee.
pickled - kimchi for example - oh heck yeah but that’s a lot of fermenting
Radish, horseradish, garlic and onions are probably my favourite veggies for sandwiches
If you’ve never tried this with a sandwich, give it a shot. Toast the bread well, then take a peeled clove of garlic and rub it on the inside facing side of each slice. Basically, you’re using the rough surface of the bread to grate the garlic down to nothing until the clove is gone and transferred to the surface if the bread. Then add a light bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper. This works especially well with with salami or prosciutto and basil sandwich.
If you like garlic, it imparts a powerful flavor, even moreso than chopped. It’s basically like micro planed, but quicker
Here we fry sliced rye bread, rub it with salt and garlic and top it with melted cheese.
I’ll try your suggestion.
Too bad they taste bad
That’s crazy. They are delicious!
yeah im not a fan myself. I guess it is a good target for supplements.
Was this written by a guy who is in love with, and does sleep with, radishes?
daikon’t see a problem with it.
I love that the pronunciation of daikon makes this sentence sound British in my head
You say they have no calories like that should make me more inclined to want to eat them. We are not all fat you know.
I do like radishes though.
As someone who tries desperately to bulk, fitness/health marketing is so frustrating.
I need calories, these small portion minimal fat and calorie bull shit foods low-key piss me off.
Radishes contain almost no calories
Not very amazing then, given that I need those to survive.
also it’s not like other vegetables have the energy density of plutonium, aside from the starchy stuff most vegetables have precisely the amount of calories that’s good for you.
Learn to fill up on veggies and you cannot overeat. No one got overweight gorging on non starch veggies or fruit.
If they do not taste good, do not eat for a day or two, and cut any salt or sugar, your palette will learn to appreciate real food.
Ha! This is my advice to my pirate-crazed kids: Let’s try hardtack for a week and I bet this broccoli would taste AMAZING!

Well that’s an easy fix: use maintain weight, and then eat a little more ;)
Even easier: maintain my weight then you’ll gain all you want

Not really. With this flipped around my reaction is …. “whooOOSHH”.
How is it that now even self-deprecating humor targeting oneself can get someone ‘s panties in a bunch?
