¿Question #224355?
xofour: why didn't anybody say "brussles sprouts"?

Grimsalt: Because medieval Europeans were semi-blind illiterate mouth-breathers.
TomTi89: When I was much younger I called them sprussle sprouts, or simply sprussels. No idea where I got that name from.
pwilz: Nobody likes those.
pricero1: Because the place is Brussels in English. That's why.
RealGuest: It's redundant. It's not like there are brussleless sprouts.
MABBY: There is only one Brussels. It should really be Brussels' sprouts if they belong to Brussels. But, then again, the local name is Bruxelles so this is all a moot point.
