Should I link the stuff I have happened upon anent the aforesaid Rijsel/Rijssel sprouts?
Think the main difference is that Rijsel sprouts unlike Brussel sprouts are moreso yellow and black hued rather than green and lighter green. Also Rijsellers have a sharperlike (or is it duller?) smatch and crunchiness to them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:9C97:5D01:991E:F6A5:D997:DF11 ( talk) 16:53, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
Why on earth would the aforesaid information be seemingly censored? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C7:9C97:5D01:F5DA:ADA6:7D3B:FDAE ( talk) 22:53, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
I remember that I, too, thought it was "Brussel sprouts" when I was a child. Then I grew up and realized that most people can't spell. Richard K. Carson ( talk) 01:46, 7 May 2023 (UTC)
Since many of your articles are cluttered up with seemingly useless Popular Culture sections in which the most trivial of references, especially being casually mentioned in passing on "The Simpsons", are listed as if they were tremendously important, would it not be in keeping with your policies regarding what is and is not useful information that belongs in a real encyclopedia to point out that the best-selling humorous author Robert Rankin has written numerous books which feature as a major character a sentient Brussels sprout called Barry? Not to mention quite a few which actually have "sprout" in their titles. Just saying. 86.130.233.165 ( talk) 09:33, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
I should have come here first, to avoid what just happened due to my reckless changes. To the point: the sources seem rather contentious on when Brussels sprouts were first cultivated.
I don't doubt that the progenitors of this cultivar came from ancient Rome as that general area is corroborated by other sources that discuss different Brassica oleracea histories. How specific can the history be on when something that can be recognized as a Brussels sprout originated? Recon rabbit 03:19, 11 January 2024 (UTC)
