Zucchini

I do not like the taste of zucchini, so might I please suggest we have instead fettuccini? That dish has zest! Zucchini is considered a veggie very healthful for you, but I’d rather get a wedgie than eat that poo! Baked in cakes or bread, it tastes good to me. Sweet is better than raw. Eating it plain should be against the law! Jan. 5, 2023 For Writing Challenge - Zip, Zig, Zag, Zing Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France

I don't mind breaded zucchinni, but the word itself is funny to say. It rhymes with other cute words..bikini, tortellini. You are such a wonderful poet and I enjoy your writing so much. It motivates me to learn new ways to write poems.

Very cute Andrea!!! Our boys wouldn't eat zucchini until I marinated it in a lemon marinade then they scarfed it up like freshly baked cookies. As children, our boys would hardly concur with your dislike of zucchini! Blessings!

Back with congratulations. I like zucchini cooked in several ways. Amazing what different taste we all have isn't it. Sara

We have plenty of Zucchini in southern parts of India. Some relish it while some hate the taste of it. Beautiful writing. Congratulations!

Probably veggie lovers will not like my poem very much. I am really picky on the veggies I like to eat raw. Just the basic salad greens, carrots, celery and peppers!!

I don't like zucchini either, except pickled in a fine chili. Give it a wish, or give it a wash, wishy and washy and married to squash. Dish it and fish it right out of your soup. Crave it or save it for Augustus Gloop. I liked your poem, Andrea. You win a free lifetime supply of -- worms! P.S. When it's not the name of a Starfleet captain, Zucchini is a fruit, not a veggie.

Even worse . If it's a fruit, it's a blemish to the name of fruit.

I like zucchini but I don't eat them much. Lovely humorous poem. Best for a win.

Yeah, I will likely be low on the list with something like this. I just wanted a topic that hopefully nobody else did!!
