"I usually buy fresh Brussels sprouts from the supermarket in 10- or 12-ounce containers, but my friend told me I should try the ones from the green market that are sold on the stalk. What does she mean? Brussels sprouts grow on a thick stalk of a two- to three-foot-tall plant with large leaves at the top and in between the sprouts to shelter them from harsh sun or heavy rain. If you find Brussels sprouts on the stalk, buy them -- they&amp;#039;re most likely locally grown and very fresh. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
