They should be more like me, a typical person who can correctly identify all vegetables on earth.

Moreover, this proves that I have a healthy diet.

My sister and brother in law are farmers. They love to play the "guess this vegetable" game when I visit... and I'm a cook. There are so many various foods out there. I've probably eaten and cooked more than most, but it would truly take a lifetime to experience them all.

I didn't know what an endive was until I was 27. Still haven't tried them, but I know what they are now! So we're basically the same person
