Zucchini is so bad that most cultures won't even name it.

I like Zucchini as well... don't get me wrong, it's no asparagus, but it has its own charm in a way.

"The Spanish must actually like the green vegetable, as they're one of the only languages that has it's own word"

That's not true. In Urdu we call it "Kheera". It's used quite frequently in salads and the like.

Zucchini has historically been a poor-man's food.

I can see why...it tastes like the vegetarian version of ass.

.. sorry for deviating from the topic.

Is this the new layout of Shoutwire or just beta testing ? Exiting, will take a while to get a hang of it though .

I hate courgettes, one of the most foul tasting vegetables ever.

In Russian we call it "tsukini," so we borrowed the word from the Americans who in turn borrowed the word from the Italians. Most languages will occasionally borrow words from another language. None of this means some things are "so bad" they're not worth naming.

the4thwallOn Iran, From an American Iranian
I have an Iranian background, so throughout my life I've been bombarded with opinions on the country. Not only that, both my parents were involved in the late 70's revolution, and saw youth that helped Khomeini get to power being shot down by Khomeini's followers afterwards. That's the problem with revolutions, sometimes a power vacuum can destroy what could be a beautifull transformation. On top of that, I have dual citizen ship, and voted in the last election, whi...

KhramHappy Canada Day!
Today is the day the greatest nation that ever existed on Earth began 142 years ago. Canadians have much to be proud of. However, even the greatest nation on Earth still has its problems.The Russians threaten our airspace with their shitty planes and violate our sovereign waters with their submarines up in the Arctic. We should be shooting their planes down and sinking their subs as they cross our borders without warning. None of our politicians have the balls to at...
