OH MON! How disheartening! I am so sorry you haven't had any success with your zucchini (I think you'd love the taste of deep fried zucchini flowers, or stuffed zucchini .... and my grankids love it when I make chocolate cake because it is so moist with the addition of the finely grated then chopped zucchini I add to it, and you can't taste it at all).
