Marge
Guys, I don’t see any vegetables on your plates!
Homer
Because I hate vegetables, Marge!
Marge
But they're so good for us, Homer!
Bart
I’m not going to eat them, I want chocolate pudding
Marge
You know Bart, there are children in Africa that don't even have broccoli to eat, stop being so unappreciative!
Lisa
But they’re such a pain to clean, mom! And they have so many pesticides on them!
Meggie
Gugu dada
Marge
Not StartUpRoots vegetables, Lisa. No pesticides, easy to clean--and those microgreens are packed with macro and micronutrients and bug free! They don’t have to be cleaned or checked!
Homer
Micro-what? What do you do with them?
Marge
Mustard micros are great on a sandwich or with sushi, radish micros are easy to toss on a salad, broccoli and kale micros are delicious on salads, wraps or even in a green drink! They’re all great for a garnish and add a lot of flavor too. https://www.brit.co/microgreen-recipes/ Did you know that there are 5 star restaurants that charge you a fortune for them? And Bart, we can even make healthy chocolate pudding with vegetables! https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/234324/chocolate-avocado-pudding/
