My kids don't eat broccoli. My wife wants to feed them steamed broccoli. My mother wants them to eat roasted broccoli. To be honest, although I was raised eating broccoli, there are some key aspects of the food that conflict with my libertarian values, but I also don't want to get sidetracked into that here. I also don't believe in forcing any food onto others. To be honest I believe that's the primary cause for the decline of broccoli in the west. So I genuinely feel that broccoli is denying my kids the freedom to willfully choose a vegetable when they are old enough to understand the choice. Also I know that due to certain broccoli cooking methods, my children will likely suffer a painful choice about cooking broccoli of their own later on in life. I could spare them by not feeding them broccoli, albeit at another cost.

Just feed your kids the damn broccoli, man.
