I saw a real eggplant for the first time in my life

[Painguy]

What is this thing? It's so purple and shiny. I was going grocery shopping buying some stuff, and I do this fairly often. Like once a week, but somehow I never came across this thing.

Am I the only one who had never seen a eggplant in person?

 

[Squarehard]

Yes.

Eggs aren't plants wth you smoking OP?

Is this coded language for "I got some dick"?

If so, congrats.

 

[SHØGVN]

Have you seen an aubergine before though?

:eggplant:

It's a real thing. You can find them at the grocery store...

It's also called Aubergine and Brinjal. It's damn delicious if cooked properly so what do you mean "what is this thing"?

Eggplant curry.

I know you're intimidated, but keep your cool. It's not a competition.

I know, in my life, I've seen eggplant, but for the life of me I can't remember the last time I actually noticed an eggplant. It's a very forgettable fruit.

Where you cruising in the grocery store OP?

 

[KHlover]

Buy one, wash it, cut it into 0.5-1cm thick slices and fry them in olive oil. Then add salt and pepper to your liking. Thank me later ;O

(was this the first time you visited the vegetable section of a grocery store?)

Welp, you just eliminated the "not seeing an eggplant in person" population.

To not notice the eggplants, I'd imagine OP be cruising the candy aisle for confectionery treats.

Fried eggplant with shoyu/vinegar dip. Do it, OP.

Well, time for you to go into the vegetable / fruits section to learn more!

I've seen one before, I also tasted one and hated it.

I've tried eating them a few times but the taste to me is just too overpowering.

Dear lord. WHAT IS THIS?!?!?! Also ITS A FUCKING FRUIT?!?! WHAT?!?!?!

Here is the low down. I was hella hungry and I was feeling some fried rice so I went to buy some.......eggs and after I did that I went to get some green shallots, carrots n garlic. Fried rice is pretty cheap to make but also very filling so I was like hell yeah. As I'm getting the carrots (not organic btw. I don't have that kind of money yet) I notice this purple thing n well.....pretty much life hasn't been the same since.

Also while I wish I had some giggle bush, I've unfortunately been out for like 3 weeks. :(

It's absolutely delicious if cooked right. Eggplant parmesan is soooooo good.

 

[TinfoilHatsROn]

Did you lick it though? Pro tip: Wash it thoroughly first. Don't want your first experience ruined by pesticides on your eggplant, do you?
