Parsley
Most of the posts on here have been about rational hatreds, in which I concur. Chavs, Tories, bad English.

But parsley? Why should I hate it? It's a herb.

Yet it is the very pubic fronds of the Old One Himself, drenched in the secretions of a billion succubi.

For starters, it's ALWAYS green, no matter how long you've been ignoring it on the spice rack.

Second, it's what the English use instead of actual flavours. This reaches its apotheosis in the abomination known as parsley sauce. "Spunk with green bits in for tea again? Thanks Mum!"

Last, it has a sort of aroma: that of decayed grass cuttings and burning linoleum.

Bastard parsley.

Ah, well. That's what you get for using dried parsley.

Quite right
In morse civilised countries they always give you some fresh parsley when you buy your fish, in fact I don't think you can actually buy fresh fish in Spain without them giving you some fresh parsley to go with it. The whole town would be at mass on sunday praying for your soul if you actually refused it.

Absolutely
Evert part of the description indicates dried parsley only. Parsley is
totally flavourless dried.

Parsley sauce is a crime.
It is a crime against sauce. It is a crime against parsley. It is a crime against humanity and God Almighty His Very Self.

Down with that sort of thing.

I am proud to stand up against the tyranny of parsley sauce.
Bane of school dinners. Harrower of gammon. Curse upon the bowels of English "cuisine".

Down with it. Down with it. Down with it.

green liqour, however
is delicious, specially when poured all over double pie and double mash! Gorgeous!

but now you mention it, I've had it with gammon and it is fucking shit.
