Asparagus

We are known, nay renowned, around here for the production of a vegetable, grown since the elder days, for it's delicate flavour and diuretic properties.

Personally, i think it's a waste of space. I don't get it's delicate flavour and it has unfortunate aroma sequelae in the toilet department.

I think people like it because it's eaten with salty butter and parmesan, or wrapped in tasty ham.
