At the time of posting, the comments are absolutely atrocious. Between a mix of "only read the title" and "scanned the first few paragraphs" people seem to think this article is about Broccoli (hint: it isn't, at all). This article is actually about scientific reporting and internet "sources" with little credibility pretending to be credible.

Anyone replying about Broccoli clearly didn't read it and should feel embarrassed.

I thought you were talking about broccoli.js https://github.com/broccolijs/broccoli

tl;dr Broccoli isn't bad for you; it's good. It can be made to seem bad by telling half a story, just like any other thing. Be moderate and try to eat more fruits and veggies.

"Considered harmful"?

garbage content is also bad for you

I take it you only read the opening couple of paragraphs before writing that. Go back and try to read the whole thing.
