Comments on: Lancaster: Plain and Fancy Farm Feast and Amish Experience http://chowtimes.com/2008/09/16/lancaster-plain-and-fancy-farm-feast-and-amish-experience/ Suanne and Ben's Food and Travel Adventures from Vancouver, BC Tue, 16 Mar 2010 11:51:51 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: nhsbee http://chowtimes.com/2008/09/16/lancaster-plain-and-fancy-farm-feast-and-amish-experience/comment-page-1/#comment-21821 nhsbee Sat, 27 Sep 2008 05:35:14 +0000 http://chowtimes.com/?p=3070#comment-21821 Mmm..Amish food..yumm! I'm actually thinking about going to Lancaster tomorrow to go to the amazing Shady Maple Smorgasbord. It's a buffet of great Amish food, and you can't go wrong with trying everything they have to offer. I generally go for breakfast early in the morning. One of the things I like most about Lancaster is the drive up there & being able to see the Amish life from the outside. From my neck of the woods, I take a lot of small back roads, and it's so refreshing to get a change in scenery. Hope you enjoyed Lancaster! Mmm..Amish food..yumm!

The day you commented about the nutritional value of cauliflower, I came home from work and found cauliflower on the dining table! Hi Joseph: That thought occurred to me too. That is why I think the Plain and Fancy farm is not owned by Amishes. Ben Hi Jessica:

Then, why did they put an Amish lady on that big advertising board? I have a question, the Amish do not like to have their pictures taken, correct?

As a member of the brassica family, cauliflower shares with broccoli and cabbage several phytochemicals which are beneficial to human health, including sulforaphane, an anti-cancer compound released when cauliflower is chopped or chewed. In addition, the compound indole-3-carbinol, which appears to work as an anti-estrogen, appears to slow or prevent the growth of tumors of the breast and prostate.[7] Cauliflower also contains other glucosinolates besides sulfurophane, substances which may improve the liver's ability to detoxify carcinogenic substances.[8] A high intake of cauliflower has been found to reduce the risk of aggressive prostate cancer.[9] - wikipedia And, it's really tasty if it's served with broccoli and cheese sauce! :-) Cauliflower does have great nutritional value:
