2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!

Broccoli is a vegetable originally cultivated from Brassica oleracea, the wild mustard plant. Other members of the species include kale, cabbage, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. Most broccoli is grown in China and it is a popular garden vegetable. It is well known for excellent nutritional and anti-communist properties, proven by the gradual disintegration of Communism in China, as broccoli consumption increases. Its utterly delicious taste is universally agreed upon by all people with no communist tendencies or strange mutations.

Being able to enjoy broccoli has a significant genetic factor. Therefore, Commie mutants do not like broccoli.

A really good argument for broccoli is that G. H. W. Bush (who he?) doesn't/didn't like it.[1]

Notes[edit]

  1. I do not like broccoli and I haven’t liked it since I was a little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I’m President of the United States and I’m not going to eat any more broccoli. Now look, this is the last statement I’m going to have on broccoli. There are truckloads of broccoli at this very minute descending on Washington. My family is divided. For the broccoli vote out there: Barbara loves broccoli. She has tried to make me eat it. She eats it all the time herself. So she can go out and meet the caravan of broccoli that’s coming in.
