I knew that. Anytime I see something facetious, salacious, tenatious, ungracious or indignatious, I think of you.
Also adding to the challenge suggestion:
 You MAY NOT ENTER OR VOTE if you have six red ribbons.
I'm not sure who that would exclude. Hmmmm... |

You forgot the "or completely ignore this description" part. That is still valid.
Let's add: "Your image must smell like brussel sprouts as well." |

Well, that's basically true of any vegetable, ya freakin' MORON! Actually it's pretty cool, if you live around Monterey in California, 'cuz you can drive down the hill to where they grow most of the world's supply and buy them still on their stalks at ridiculously low prices, and as long as you leave them on the stalk they stay fresh for an amazing length of time, and you snip off as many as you want to cook, then you blanch 'em for a couple minutes, then split them in half top-to-bottom, then toss them in olive oil and minced garlic and a little salt and let them sit.
About 10 mins before dinner you dump them in a hot saute pan and brown 'em up a little (pan roasting, I call it, you can roast them in the oven if you like) and serve 'em as your green vegetable of the night :-)

Not if you cook them right. They are cabbages, and like most cabbages release a lot of sulfur-like compounds when overcooked, especially when boiled.
