Oh man. I have wanted fractal cauliflower (aka romanesco broccoli) in my bento for years. How could I not? It's math in a vegetable. Who in their right mind wouldn't want that?
So imagine my delight when I was checking the Wealth Underground blog Tuesday to see what would be in the week's share and there in the picture: A FULL HEAD OF FRACTAL CAULIFLOWER. Did I voice an audible OMG FRACTAL CAULIFLOWER that caused both cats to stare in alarm at the crazy human? Did I immediately envision my next bento, featuring said fractal cauliflower? Did I entertain the notion of eating my lunch in the company lunch room for the first time ever simply to show off my fractal cauliflower?
You can't prove anything.
So I think it's safe to say Best. Share. Ever. And featured heavily in today's lunch.

lunch, blue bunny & moons:
- Panko breaded chicken breast
- mashed potatoes
- FRACTAL CAULIFLOWER OMG
- rainbow carrots & two leafs of French sorrel* underneath
- purple grapes with pomegranate seeds as gap fillers
*This is one of my favorite things I've experienced in the share so I'm glad to see it back as we near the end of this years' share. You can eat the leaves just as they are and they have this wonderful sour taste. Not bitter -- it's kind of like sucking on a lemonhead (though it doesn't taste lemony). And you can imagine the wonderful dimension it adds to a salad!
