Most things taste better when eaten with wooden utensils. It might sound weird, but compared to metal wood feels much better when eating and it seems to affect the taste.
That would actually make sense- The metals that your cutlery is made from affect the taste
slightly [http://munchies.vice.com/articles/it-turns-out-silver-spoons-make-food-taste-awful]. I'm guessing wood is pretty inert so it would be, supposedly, almost as good as gold?
Bearing in mind that broccoli is revolting, I've always tried to avoid it. For some bizarre reason it came on the side of a steak at TGI Fridays, and I made the greatest discovery in culinary history- Broccoli is a motherfucking
sponge. It absorbed the entire ramekin of barbecue sauce, turning into some kind of weird meaty fig with the appearance of the inside of a smoker's lungs. It's the only way that broccoli is acceptable as food.
