This is like an (only slightly) less scientific Daily Mail / Express piece - classify everything in the world into two categories - Good and Bad (or Causes Cancer and Cures Cancer). I voted Good, but with the caveat that it only applies if it's properly cooked and in not too large a quantity.

Asparagus can be good... but only if cooked right.

Roasted, slowly, with kosher salt, butter, shaved parmesan and a sprinkle of summer savoury. Mmmm...

=========
Or maybe used to decorate gingerbread? Is that weird?

"Kosher salt" is just a fancy name for rough large-grained cooking salt.

The "kosher" part is not because it's compatible with Judaism dietary laws (it is, but so is regular fine-grain salt), but rather because this is the type of salt used in making meat kosher (they use salt to drain out the blood out of the meat, since blood is considered unkosher).

Hey! Why is a guy calling himself "pringles" interested in vegetables? Be careful! It might be a company agent which is searching for new flavors. Pringles Asparagus, now with 25% extra healthy vegetable extracts.

Probably about 38% simpler than it is for strict vegans who don't happen to own their own farm?
