Why on earth would you ruin a perfectly delicious meal with a huge chunk of fucking broccoli? I know there are mutants (in the literal sense because it's a DNA mutation, bitter was the original default) out there who don't taste the bitterness, but that's a bacon cheeseburger and fried potatoes. You can't make that any healthier and still call it delicious.

    There’s no accounting for taste.

    I like the flavor of grilled broccoli. It doesn’t taste that bitter if you use fresh broccoli and cook it right. It’s an easy side when you’ve already got the grill fired up.

    Plus, a little bit of butter/oil and some garlic powder on perfectly roasted broccoli florets is simply divine

    I've had several meals in restaurants where the broccoli tastes better than the meat, and the meat was good.

    Looks like it’s roasted in oil (edit: I see it’s grilled not roasted, still the char looks perfect and I bet it was amazing), they aren’t going for healthy broccoli, they are going for delicious. Personally I think roasted broccoli pairs well with a proper cheeseburger. If anything it’s the tater tots that don’t belong on that plate
