When I went to UC Berkeley there was a cafe on Telegraph Avenue, Intermezzo, that I (well, everyone) would frequent. Known for its vegetarian cuisine, Intermezzo made excellent soups, salads, and sandwiches. I loved everything about this place, except for one small thing: the sandwiches came with sprouts! While Yum loves them, alfalfa sprouts are an ingredient that I would like to forget. I find them tasteless, stringy, and hate how they always get stuck in your teeth. How about you?

i'm like you, i hate tham.
1I like them. They're cute and they add some crunchiness.
2I don't love them, I only like them, but I've gotten an impression they sometimes have salmonella.
3I'm on the fence. There's a place near my house that puts them on all of the sandwiches, and I think my problem is they just put way too much. I end up pulling some of it off, then the sandwich tastes better, and I'm not overwhelmed with sprout texture.
Love to put bean sprouts in my wraps, though. Those have a nice crunch.
4Love 'em. I put 'em in stir fry, never tried to put 'em in a sandwich.
5LOVE THEM. I love how they're nutty, crunchy, crispy, and not too sweet. Hmm.
6I love them, but won't eat them because of the risk of salmonella. Even growing your own doesn't make them safer, so I don't think I'll be having them anytime soon.
7yummm i just had some 2day
8I love the crunch!
9Bean sprouts are fabulous when they're fried up. Deeeelightful.
To me they've always seemed like a waste of space, with their taste resembling the wet cotton that you'd sprout them on.
Never tried them in a stir-fry, but now I'm looking forward to it.
10sometimes i really like them and other times i dont
11I love them on chickensalad sandwiches or wraps.
12love it, but i haven't had some in a long time
13I like them - they add a nice crunch.
14I like them, but I also don't eat them because they harbor Salmonella. I like bean sprouts too and those are better because they don't have Salmonella on/in them.
15Love them in my chow mein
16I love all sprouts!
17AHHH I love Intermezzo!!!
And I love sprouts as well
