My parents grew a lot of their own vegetables and while there were cabbages, cauliflower and even brussel sprouts in our garden, there was never broccoli. I eat all vegetables, so I would have gobbled it up if I'd known about it. I think it started being popular in the 1980s as I recall my son loved his "pasta with little trees" when he was a lad.<br /><br />I made this for dinner this evening. It's been a wet and windy day - ideal soup weather. There is no creamed corn to be found here, but I've found a great substitution (boiling together canned corn, evaporated milk and a little cornstarch) that works a treat. The soup was deliciously creamy and very filling and those cheese croutons are very dangerous to have around - I could have eaten a whole plate of them!
