My mom roastes it with parmesan. Great! Most people I've spoken with that dont' like asparagus had a bad experience with the canned variety. IMO, nothing green should be canned.

Funny memory. I was on a school tour in High School in Italy. I think we were somewhere between Florence and Rome when the bus driver pullls over on the side of a highway and runs down the stairs. Nothing to fear though. Our teacher gets on the microphone and informs us that the driver has "spotted some wild asparagus" and had to have it.
