What std causes cauliflower-like growths?

Although the most common symptom of all sexually transmitted infections and diseases (STIs/STDs) is no symptom at all, when someone contracts a low-risk strain of the human papillomavirus (HPV), they can experience what are often referred to as 'cauliflower-like' growths on their skin - otherwise known as genital warts. *

Low-risk strains of HPV do not lead to cancer, as is the concern with high-risk strains of HPV, but they can still result in unpleasant symptoms such as growths or warts on the skin. Those warts have a tendency to resemble small clumps of cauliflower. Although they are usually pain-free, they can be slightly itchy, and a bit unsightly.

*

For most people, over time (6 months to 2 years), one's immune system will clear the infection on its own. However, caution is still necessary, because even when the warts have cleared, the infection may still be present in the body and transmittable to others.

*

Some other STIs that can cause bumps include herpes and molluscum, but their appearance is different and doesn't usually resemble the cauliflower-like structure like low-risk HPV/genital warts.

What is the history of cauliflower?

"Cauliflower is nothing but a cabbage with a college education."--Mark Twain.

Cauliflower is formed from the natural flowers of the cabbage plant encouraged to gather together, unopened, to create a mass which becomes a large head over time. Depending on type, the heads can be pale green, white or even purple. A native of Asia Minor, the cauliflower was once described as resembling a bridal bouquet.

Cauliflower is younger than cabbage, originating sometime after the birth of Christ, most likely in Cyprus. The Romans grew cauliflower but we know little about how they prepared it. It was introduced to France from Italy in the middle of the 16th century. It was popular at the court of Louis XIV, where it was served in rich, elegant dishes. Cauliflower was introduced in England in the early 17th century. Its introduction to the United States has been fairly recent. As with broccoli, it was much more popular in ethnic communities, especially with Italians, and was not developed commercially until the 1920s.

An organically grown, youngish cauliflower, perfectly steamed and served with a bit of butter or margarine, is surprisingly tasty. Asian Indians may well eat the cauliflower best, seasoned with curry spices.

How do you steam a head of cauliflower?

Cut it into large chunks or even florets and steam it 7-8 minutes.
