I like vegetables so much. But one of my most favorate is the bitter melon. I know most of people hate it because of its bitterness. Unlike me the more it taste bitter the more I like it. I like it cooked and also raw like salad bitter melon.I like its crop or fruit or even its leaves in a soup..... I wonder how many of you out there are like of me...

Bitter melon is bitter, but bitter makes your health better. This is true to many diabetic patients and people in general. I like this vegetable and use this as many times as possible.

Yes I am. That's one of my favorites. My father taught me how to eat that in fact we grilled it and never grasp and squeeze it with salt as what others did but rather we ate it with full of spices with delicious anchovy...yummy my mouth is watering... Do you have lots of bitter melon there?

when i was younger i really don't like eating this wrinkled green bitter vegetable! only because its bitter! hehehe... but now, since i know all the benefits and nutrients that we can get from it, i learned like and even love it! i like it to be cooked with eggs, i also use it as ingredients in other vegetable dishes such as "pinakbet" and salad is also very good...especially when paired with grilled fish! but there are times that i can't stand the bitterness and so i do some things to lessen its bitterness, like washing it with salt...i don't know if its good but i think it also lessen the nutrients...but its okay...hehehe at least its not too bitter! thanks for being here and i hope you will enjoy your stay here...

I like cooking bitter melon. I always stir fry beef and bitter melon together. Bitter melon helps a lot with the blood circulation too and so I always encourage my family to have a serving twice to thrice a week.

Some times I will try to have more bitter melon coz I heared that the vitamin contents, especially vitamin C in it is rather high.
