Anyone besides me think canned beans and asparagus sucks.


Canned asparagus is compost not food. "Fresh" asparagus from the
supermarket can be acceptable but it isn't good. Asparagus you cut 10
minutes ago is the real thing and a sublime experience as long as you don't
overcook it.


Even better than cooked is to break off a spear and eat it in the
garden. That assumes that they have not been sprayed.
