      Here in Germany it's actually cheaper, because it's not 1st grade asparagus. (People here are really quite snobbish about this. There's a whole seasonal song and dance being made about the few weeks they're in season for. If you talk to Germans about asparagus, they'll almost exclusively think of the white variety. We call the one grown to above ground green asparagus.)

      @@MohammedAllali-ng3po I never claimed it was a German only plant. The type that's being grown as a vegetable is believed to have originated in the Eastern Mediterranean area, however a) there's mentions of this type of asparagus in dark age Germany and no one knows if those have been a natural spread or accidental one.
      So people here have cultivated this type of asparagus for hundreds of years now.
      And besides, there's many types of asparagus plants in Europe, Asia and Africa.

      I like the purple one the most, but the green is very close. They don't taste that different, and the purple is a reddish purple, and very dark. A bit like blue/red cabbage(I don't know the English translation).
      I'm from a very asparagus heavy region in germany(nicknamed aspagrus land, Spargelland), an they have something called baby asparagus, which is just small aspagrus, and it's usually better in taste. If we want to eat a large portion we need to call ahead a day or two or otherwise we will not be able to get the amount needed

    Is there like a difference in taste, texture, or nutritional value between green or white asparagus? 😅 This video didn't address it. From my understanding, these are the same plants, except one is exposed to sunlight. It just seems like extra steps to harvest white asparagus if there isn't any major differences 😮
