I've enjoyed rhubarb since I was young; first had them combined with strawberries one summer while in college and working away from home.I'd rather have the combo in jam, pie, tart, etc. Ice cream, no, not really.I'd rather have just strawberries.
Loved the combination, still enjoy each one by itself as well.

Funny, the state capitol in Baton Rouge gives

the elevator lobby likewise add to the atmosphere.

To me, rhubarb is high on the list of "It was a
brave [person] who first ate a [fill in te blank]"

lobter, and shellfish, but in these cases the
aroma and taste deny the ugliness that the eye
sees. Rhubarb untreated has much less taste
appeal, though its appearance is not unpleasing.
