    Sounds like me, except I would drink the broccoli water.

    Once you reset your palette, cutting out excess salt and sugar and cheap fats, and processed foods, you learn to enjoy the taste of whole foods all on their own. Salted ourselves to taste, which is far less than processed food will add.

      …there’s gotta be a healthy solution somewhere between industrially processed meals and plain microwave-boiled broccoli

        No! If you don’t take an extreme stance on this topic, you might be seen as boring!

        A toaster oven, or regular oven I guess if you’re fancy, some olive oil and a sprinkling of red chili flaked will get you done delicious roast broccoli (400°F/205°C for ~15 minutes)

          Oil makes a huge difference. Or butter. Even fat drippings, like turkey gelatin from cooking one.
