I'm Mr. Sprouts

And am short and stout,

Am popular in Brussels

That's where I gained my name.

My relatives are cabbage

But I carry a lot of baggage,

Of hate and detest

Here I do protest!

My lineage is naught

By many I am sought,

Packed with vitamins galore

My antioxidents rule the floor.

With 86% water 

I help you lose weight faster,

Essential minerals and dietary fiber

Exist in my structure.

Consuming me has many benefits

Including reduced inflammation, sugar and cancer.

So... when are you having me?
