     i don't really seem to mind it about any way with fried   
   being the most popular to many people.  since i can eat   
   oatmeal i can handle a bit of okra if it is cooked up and   
   a bit slimy.  doesn't bother me.  we're not much for   
   growing it here ourselves so most experience i have with   
   it is remote.  my brother grows some if he manages to put   
   in a garden.
