the miracle ingredient that sweetens every soup and stew.

When my grandfather was a little boy, the rule was that if you had dinner at somebody else's house, you must finish everything on the plate, no matter whether you liked it or not.

As a boy, my grandad hated cabbage, so when it was served at his aunt's house he decided he'd eat all of it that was on his plate just to get it over with.

His aunt noticed and piled a triple helping on his plate, saying "My my my that boy does love cabbage!"
