Tuber time!
Kohlrabi
This stuff is terrible. It just waves its creepy little arms at you and tastes like nothing no matter what you do to it. I can already hear the kohlrabi lobby whining about how it's "not technically a root." Not important; what matters here is that kohlrabi needs to be put in its place, which is at the bottom of a list.

Cassava
Look, I have EYES. I can tell this is not a vegetable. This is a small piece of tree.

Horseradish
The fact that humans found something that a) looks like a mummy's dong and b) tastes like spicy sawdust and were like WOW LET'S EAT IT really perfectly encapsulates the problem with humans.

Turnips
For a vegetable whose name is only one letter away from "turn up," I would expect this to be a LOT more fun.
