What is it ??

It's part of a green vegetable. I'm looking for the name of the vegetable. I was surprised that the thinner pieces were transparent. I would have guessed they're all green. Maybe it's the poor photo quality.

Leek? Onion?

Hmmmmm...

A green vegetable...this is the part that you don't like to eat but a lot of people do like to eat, so I'm thinking it's the outer layer of the vegetable, maybe the peel...thinner pieces are transparent, not all green...looking at the shot, it's also somewhat fibrous...

Or wait, maybe it's the stalk that you don't like.

Broccoli?

Correct guess or not, I'll say that I don't like broccoli stalks. Just the florets.

Not a leek, onion, or broccoli. I can't imagine anyone liking it, but they may not bother to remove it. I have a technique that makes removing much of it pretty easy. It doesn't require a tool. I don't think anyone uses a peeler but that would probably be the best available tool.

Looks like celery, but everyone eats all of the celery?

Not me. Celery strings are too hard to chew. This is how I peal off the strings. So you win.

Beet.

We love beet tops as well as the bottoms.

I don't have a wide shot, but it's celery so Heather wins. BTW, try pealing celery like me and chew the strings and you'll see that they're the bad part of celery. I used to spit them out but now I remove them.
