Eggplant is potentially one of the most disgusting vegetables
on this earth, according to Laura Lemay's groundbreaking 1994
study. Other scientists, notably those from the Eggplant Preservation
Society of America (EPSA), argue that the vitamins and minerals
that eggplant provides far outweigh the drawbacks in its taste,
texture, and color. Ms. Lemay does not agree, and has publicly
stated that if any members of the EPSA come near her with eggplant,
she will pelt them with copies of her study until they go away.
