Broccoli Emoji 🥦

A single green floret still on its stalk, the broccoli emoji is the poster vegetable for healthy eating and 'eat your veggies' reminders. It's also the running joke about the one food kids famously refuse to touch.

What 🥦 means

A mini-tree kind of a vegetable with a thick green stem and an umbrella of separated green bunches of the vegetable. The 🥦 Broccoli signifies a healthy body and diet, organic food, farming, and green veggies. However, every benefit of this vegetable has its own speculations.

How and when to use it

While posting or reposting some delicious dishes with sprinkles of broccoli in it (or just broccoli in it), you can use 🥦 in the captions.
You can also use 🥦 while sharing some informative content about broccolis, like the health benefits, myths, facts, etc.
Besides, broccoli is another slang term for marijuana, given its color, of course. Thus, in such contexts, you may use 🥦 . In fact, it is a prevalently used term in rap and hip hop, so it's not something that was just made up.
Speaking of witchcraft, broccoli is one of the magic foods that is used here. So, if you're posting anything with a witch in, be it a cartoon or even a real one, or even a Halloween post, you can use 🥦 in those captions (among other suitable emojis).
🥦 can also be used in contexts of 'Environment Day', health, organic eating, dieting, etc.

Seeing a blank box instead of the emoji somewhere? Here's why that happens. Curious why the designs above don't match to begin with? Here's why that happens too.
