Then that may have been what made me super sick last week when I was in Texas. My friend/host threw some of each vegetable into a pot and boiled it up for a side with dinner (and they definitely boiled, didn't steam, it). Maybe it released some kind of toxin. That's what I'll blame now for making me puke all over the hall and spend half the day in the bathroom, rather than the undercooked chicken we had for the main dish.
