Seems odd for people to eat something that has essentially zero calories, but I guess it has its uses. What they don't seem to address is taste.

For me, that is celery. I am a pretty good eater, but I do not like celery and do not see the purpose for it. 555

I really like celery and cucumbers. Both are good afternoon snacks for me.

We made zoodles (zucchini pasta) a few times during the Whole 30 diet thing. Honestly... not bad!

Interesting, thanks! So, it looks like it is good for potassium and maybe calcium

Nimitz loves celery, but he cannot digest it.
