I like both but I find broccolini can be a bit expensive and sometimes there's a lot of waste like broccoli rabe. Taste wise, I like the bitter but I find regular broccoli is more versatile and just as tasty steamed with nothing on it.
I prefer broccolini because I am not especially fond of the florets, preferring the stalks. Since the stalks are so much more tender on broccolini, it is a win-win for me.
I don't find there to be any waste on broccolini or broccoli rabe. I cook and eat every part.

I agree. I like broccoli just fine, but I *really* like broccolini and broccoli rabe.
