Seriously? Do you have any idea how much broccoli you'd have to eat before you hit 1,000 calories?
About 24 calories per 100 grams of broccoli.
1,000 calories / 24 = 41.6
You'd have to eat 41.6 servings of broccoli at 100g per to hit 1,000 calories. That is 4,166 (give or take) grams of broccoli.
1 pound = 453.59237 grams. 4,166 / 454 = 9.17 lbs. Of broccoli. Not even Adam Richman would consider eating that.
You want to saute the broccoli in butter or bacon fat, you could probably cut it down to about 3 or 4 pounds per serving.
"Hello, healthy vegetarian restaurant waitperson, I'd like to order your three pound steamed broccoli lunch platter, please."
HOLY SHIT I WOULD RATHER HAVE A FUCKING CHOCOLATE BAR. Or two...
Oh, btw, I 100% disagree with your initial statement.
