| thank you for your help, thank you all for your suggestions, i had found scoff in reverso dictionary, i thought it meant eating in a slang or colloquial way, this means one must always ask the help of humans that speak very good english and not just a dictionary cause one learns bad english filled with errors only using a dictionary, cause i thought humans said scoff or scarf, but no, dictionaries contain mistakes then, |

N.B. North American scarf = British scoff.
I certainly would not use "scoff a vegetable" (and I am British and I would never say that I have heard of anyone scoffing vegetables, even vegetarians); I am not too sure why you would simply not say "eat a vegetable ..." and you chose to use "scoff"? As far as your question "culpas", why not guilt (we are always told vegetables are good for you!)?
BTW, 'scoff' is strictly UK English. We say 'scarf' in the US. See:
https://forums.welltrainedmind.com/topic/263849-scarf-if-dow...
scoff [sth]⇒ vtr UK, slang (eat greedily) zampar⇒ vtr
(AR, coloquial) morfar⇒ vtr
engullir⇒ vtr

Pero igual no me parece nada adecuado, porque se trata de argot británico... :)
