[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 520848, member: 84"] I make a stew with cabbage that is quite yummy, but it's part of the flavor and I was raised on cabbage and love just plain cooked cabbage. (yes I'm a tad strange lol ) I can't comment on okra, never had it, nor would I know what to do with it if I bought it. I certainly wouldn't think to put it into soup. I wonder if perhaps this is a version their mother made? As I'm guessing Tony and Buck ate it okay..... Now this wouldn't have worked on me. I'd have not commented and just made myself something else. If pushed for a comment, I'd have simply reminded Tony I don't care for cabbage in soups. husband would drive me nuts with what he liked and didn't like. Now I knew for certain the man would starve rather than eat rice. (too much time in korea and vietnam) But I swear he hated my fried potatoes n onions and wouldn't even try them........and the same for the white gravy I make for both my chicken and pork steaks. All of a sudden out of the blue he decides he loves them both........and acted like I was more than a bit off my nut for suggesting he ever felt otherwise. And proceeded to eat them with gusto for the next 10 or more years. But I have to admit............I'd forget about the rice thing once in a while. I'd try something new and maybe rice was one of the ingredients or a side for it.......and husband looked at me like I did it on purpose, and I never did. Oh, I'd make sweet rice for the kids all the time but always made something with it that he could eat too. I never expected him to eat the sweet rice, that was just a given. But I'm telling you, you just don't realize how many "healthy" dishes consist of rice in there somewhere......omg All I'm saying is even with all our years together I managed to forget from time to time about husband and the rice. To him it was a HUGE deal (you'd think I tried to poison him), to me.....not so much. If I don't like something I just don't eat it and chose something else instead. ((hugs)) Janet. I certainly hope this Buck ordeal comes to an end soon. [/QUOTE]
