What it means

The Broccoli Emoji 🥦 presents a sturdy green vegetable with a plump, cloud-like tuft of densely packed florets atop a thick stalk, brimming with garden energy.

Mainly used to talk about broccoli itself, nutritious eating, or the never-ending parent-child debate over vegetables at dinner; it can also stand for anything earthy, eco-friendly, or verdantly healthy.

Unlike the leafy green 🥬 (lots of soft leaves) or onion 🧅, broccoli’s tight, curly clusters are instantly identifiable (broccoli may be wild in Unicode’s keywords, but on your plate it stays nicely domesticated).

Type in "broccoli," "green," "vegetable," or even "healthy" to bring up this green giant.
