Anyway the answer is "vegetables"

Broad beans please.

Not really any bad vegetables though I find bitter melon hard going depending on the prep. Mushrooms for range (enoki! shiitake! oyster!), aubergine for depth.
Anyone want to argue for avocados or peanuts as vegetables?

Would anyone ever think of peanut as a veg? Might as well say chickpeas are.

If mushrooms (fungi) are going to be permitted under the term "vegetables," then you can't be snobbish about admitting tomatoes or avocados or chickpeas to the party.
We can't get clarity if we can't focus on whether the biological categories need to rule, or the culinary/use-based definitions.
Peanuts are a bridge too far in any case.

It's a vegetable if it could be in a "meat and 3 veg" meal and it's not the meat.

So, regarding celery. What do you think of as "ants on a log":
I think of it as "that gross thing people do to celery to ruin it"

This will sound disgusting, but I cooked some oiled/seasoned veg in the oven last week as a late snack. I left it on a bit too long and the cabbage was all burnt, crispy and dark. But I especially enjoyed the burnt cabbage and was thinking: this is better than fugging crisps, is this burnt cabbage.― calzino, Wednesday, August 2, 2017 12:38 PM (yesterday) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Wait, no mention of beetroot yet? Apart from classic roadside cafe sandwich fodder & roast veg stainer, been liking them julienned & steamed w/desiccated coconut & methi, vaguely Sri Lankan style.

if greens as a broad category are acceptable I would go with that cuz spinach, collards, chard, kale, etc are the best

beets are #1. roasted non-red beets with vinaigrette, salt, tarragon, mint, etc.
