Some Like it Not Hot
Riddle
Riddles are little poems or phrases that pose a question that needs answering. Riddles frequently rhyme, but this is not a requirement.Riddle
Gobble it down fast, or nibble or gnaw,
There is a vegetable we mostly eat raw.
It can't be pickled or made into jam.
You can't fry it up to go with your ham.
You can't dry it out or powder it a bit
And freezing or canning will not be a hit.
Some cooks might grill or stir-fry or use a soup pot,
But eating it hot is something that's not done a lot.
Such creative cuisine of everyday food leaves me in awe,
Since everyday, most of us routinely, just eat it raw.
