If you take time to prepare them right, veggies are great. Even more so when you culture them yourself (even slower!). I come from a culture of: Boil you veggies to death, squash with potatoes, eat (most taste comes from the meat presented on the side). This can be delicious if the veggie is kale, the potatoes are squashed with butter, you add bacon baked in wine vinegar and honey, and eat it with some mustard. But generally the taste is boiled away. But, if you take your chicory for example, fry it, then add some orange juice, steam it a bit, make it into a "tarte tartin" with goat cheese, rocket and sun dried tomatoes on top... That's a new world.
