Origin
Brussels sprouts are believed to have originated in ancient Rome, where they were cultivated as a wild cabbage. The modern Brussels sprouts we know today were developed in the 13th century in what is now Belgium, specifically around the city of Brussels, hence the name. They were later introduced to other European countries, including France and England, where they became popular as a winter vegetable. Today, Brussels sprouts are grown in many parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and various European countries.
