00:00 I'm not into sprouts I'm afraid, I'm not but I do know I have got some family members that are
00:05 but and I did see sprouts on a pizza which is one thing so there you go sprouts can go anywhere.
00:11 Sprout burgers, sprout sandwiches, Christmas dinner burgers, Dear Santa Pi, many restaurants
00:18 have been hard at work creating unique dishes inspired by traditional Christmas dinner food.
00:23 Food spots are using roast dinner leftovers in innovative ways or hoping to add a creative
00:29 flair to disliked items. Brussels sprouts you either love them or hate them and these dishes
00:34 are on offer throughout the city. We spoke to people in Manchester about Christmas dinner
00:40 inspired grub. I think it's great to have a variety of different foods to account for like
00:46 different people's tastes and like their allergies and stuff like that so I think whatever you like
00:50 I said go for it. People are probably a bit bored of the traditional kind of Christmases
00:55 and it's like people are having different meats and stuff with their Christmas dinner now and
00:58 kind of like like you say I think it's always good to bring out something new. I'd try for sure I'd
01:04 never say never because you just don't know I mean sprouts on their own are quite kind of like bland
01:09 but I think if you put them with like say a burger or kind of mix them with other foods I think they're
01:14 marked quite nice. I think it's a bit of a fun thing but I think it's also very fatty. I think
01:20 if we could keep some traditions going and wholesome food I think it's more important to
01:25 have that and then be happy and around the table dinner table together rather than to have like a
01:29 sprout burger or what have you. I mean I realise they're vegans amongst us but you know they can
01:34 have the exception so basically yeah. Oh yeah I would definitely try I would definitely try and
01:39 then make like a maybe more informed decision yeah. I like sprouts but I wouldn't eat them in a burger.
01:50 We've had them Christmas, there's a lot you can do with sprouts though. I do but for Christmas I
01:55 don't with bacon and chestnuts. Yeah. So we do like sprouts but it's only usually once a year
02:00 that we have them. But so much sandwiches are terrible. Because because you get very gassy after sprouts.
02:09 Not on your life. No that's it no I just no no. Other than that you know two-letter word I can't
02:22 think of of anything and I once went into a place and I had brussel sprout soup and it was vile you
02:30 know whereas brussel sprouts aren't my favourite veg but you can't put it in a soup it was vile.
02:38 No please don't do that you know I love my favourite thing is a burger when I go out but I tell you
02:43 I'm not touching a Christmas inspired burger. I'm a bit of a traditionalist really but I do like
02:51 brussel sprouts with smoked bacon sliced up or grated and then pan-fried in butter
02:58 and they do make a difference to your Christmas dinner they do they do help but I'm a bit of a
03:04 traditionalist really not much for adventure I do like the traditional turkey and all the trimmings
