Just for fun: A St. Patrick's Day Debate!
Most people aren't just so-so about their corned beef and cabbage. They either love it or they really don't. How do you feel about this traditional St. Patrick's Day treat?
Corned Beef and Cabbage: Love it or Leave it?

Love it!
AnnaleeBlysse says:
Had some on this St. Patrick's Day!
awelldressedbullet says:
total yumminess
flinnie says:
Hi sound good to me.
Centavo says:
Great with green beer!
savenlives says:
like the corned beef but yuck to the cabbage!
LaraineRose says:
Love it. We don't wait for St. Patrick's Day to have it. It is a staple at our home.
charlino says:
Love it. I make mine from scratch every year.
Swisstoons says:
Hard to beat corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, carrots and a glass of Guinness!
KonaGirl says:
I love eating it, but it is not traditional for our family. My Grandmother's St. Patrick day dish was Lamb Shanks stewed in stout
happynutritionist says:
I couldn't imagine St. Patrick's day without a traditional dinner of corned beef and cabbage!! We loved every bite! I'd be a "goophead" (my security word) if I didn't like it!
bethd821 says:
And it's easy to make!
Pastiche says:
Love a good Irish boiled dinner, aye.
Alfiesgirl says:
I have yet to try corned beef n cabbage, although I have tasted & do like the Irish version of corned-beef. But...I love boiled-bacon n cabbage which, is what I usually serve up on St Patricks Day yummy xx
prosperity66 says:
As long as it's not canned corned beef; which is absolutely disgusting, I'm taking both corned beef and cabbage, of course! Happy Saint Paddy's!
poddys says:
I had never heard of this in the UK, but when I moved to South Bend, Indiana, home of Notre Dame and the Fighting Irish, well you couldn't get away from green beer and corned beef and cabbage. Yes, I like it, I love traditional dishes to celebrate different holidays.
Leave it!
scarlettohairy says:
No thank you. Ick.
WhimsicalWatters says:
I am a vegetarian. If there was a vegetarian alternative I would try it though. Ha ha ha.
Deeksha says:
Love to eat cabbage but not beef...
NoobWriter says:
I hate vegetables
Titia says:
I don't like corned beef, but I guess I can replace that with my own sheep meat. I do like cabbage though, but I never cook cabbage. I slice it and then I bake it in some olive oil, till it gets soft. Much more tastefuller to eat and faster to make it. If we have the 'white' cabbage I put some raisins in there while baking. Don't know if baking is the right word.
TylaMac says:
I don't eat beef. I did have a veggie version with tofu once that was pretty good,though.
charmilbrettdotcom says:
if the corned beef is sliced thin.. the cabbage is turned into sauerkraut... there's a little swiss cheese, Thousand Island and mustard... maybe.. but, corned beef and cooked cabbage ... sorry. No.
tiff0315 says:
Yuck!
meetmarkmakeup says:
No thanks!
Heather426 says:
I like Irish Cream liquor, does that count?
KimGiancaterino says:
I'll take the Irish coffee!
genglo says:
I'm with Spook. Skip the beef, pass the Irish Coffee!
hlkljgk says:
leave it - we opt for the vegetarian boiled dinner. or vegetarian sheherd's pie. mmm...
MissMerFaery says:
Hmm, cabbage is ok, not so keen on the corned beef. I'm with Spook also, although I'd say pass the Irish cream liqueur, myself!!
louiswery says:
I agree with Spook!
Spook says:
Quite simply, pass, now pass the Irish coffee.
GrowWear says:
Cabbage only for me, thanks. But, in its defense, I've never had it homemade with all the love cooked in. :)
Waxing-Lyrical says:
I'll leave it!!
MarianaFargasch says:
leave it, sorry. Corned Beef and Cabbage just don't agree well with me! Happy St. Pattys Day!! :)) Congratz on the lens!
Happy St. Patrick's Day

- Happy Saint Patrick's Day, Squid Team! Thank you so much for even considering let alone adding two of my lenses here. I'm usually the shy wallflower that nobody notices, so it really surprises and touches me when you do. It really means a lot - deep thanks to all of you for creating Squidoo and for all you do. (Happy tears in my eyes! HUGS!) ~ Congrats to all of my Squid buddies who are also here. You all rock!! =D
