Raw cauliflower's texture is rough, like a sponge, and will scrub at tough food accumulations on the teeth. If cauliflower is well washed, it is safe to eat raw, unless it causes stomach upset. There are a variety of vitamins in cauliflower that can be lost or changed during cooking. Therefore, many people advise eating it raw, or lightly steamed. A carbohydrate and fiber rich food, cauliflower adds flavor, color, and texture to raw vegetable mixtures. When eaten raw, it can leave an odd taste in the mouth. A warm buttery sauce will soften it some without affecting vitamin content.
