Sprouts, for years I’ve been trying to tell myself that they’re actually just fairy cabbages in an attempt to make them more appealing but for the most part I’ve hated them.
However much I’ve hated them however, I thoroughly believe that Christmas dinner just wouldn’t be Christmas dinner without a sprout on your plate.
The times I’ve spent Christmas’s with my GBF, I’ve managed to pass my compulsory sprout under the table to his dog lucky, who absolutely loves the thing but this year I’m going back home to mu Mum’s and thanks to Vivera’s bacon pieces, I’ve made sprouts not only edible but actually quite appetizing!
