I wonder if this is why my kids really like vegetables. They grew up eating them "supermarket fresh" and now the younger one likes having his own veggie plot in the garden.
I absolutely despise canned vegetables. I'll give canned tomatoes & beans a pass, but everything else must go.
- actionfromafar 3y agoGiving beans a pass == letting beans go?
- cuttysnark 3y agoall they are saying, is give beans a pass (from canned vegetable jail)
- actionfromafar 3y agoI thought "giving a pass" meant "passing over", "not taking".
- cuttysnark 3y agoIME: "giving a pass [to]" is synonymous with "making an exception [for]". Whereas "passing up" or "passing on" (or as you said "passing over") would be closest to "not taking" or "skipping". OP said they "give a pass to" two veggies and despise all others. So I read it as they were making an exception to their "no canned veggies" rule.

- denton-scratch 3y ago> I'll give canned tomatoes & beans a pass I favour San Marzano tomatoes for cooking. If they're not in a tin, and whole, they're not allowed to be sold as "DOP". You can get San Marzano seeds and grow your own; no doubt they're very good. You can buy fresh San Marzano at a greengrocer; they're probably fine too. But San Marzano DOP are picked and tinned only in the foothills of Vesuvius. You also can't get tinned chopped San Marzano DOP; they have to be whole. To be fair, chopping up a tin of San Marzano results in a soupy pulp, which is fine if you're making a sauce or soup, which is what they're best for. Tinned chopped tomatoes tend to be chopped whole - you get the cores as well as the pulp. I take out the cores when I chop them. I've always been picky with tomatoes. I've never heard of tinned lettuce.
