What can you use instead of sage? My wife and I are not fond of it. How about green onions?? Thanks

Try rosemary if you don't like sage. In fact, I saw a great idea. If you have a rosemary bush and want to make kabobs, use the rosemary stalks for skewers. Pare off the rough bark and rosemary leaves with a veggie peeler in the area you want to use for the skewered pork or chicken, sharpen the back end to a point, leave about 2 inches of rosemary intact at the other end for decoration if you want. They say the rosemary infuses into the kabob. You might have to poke a hole first through the meat/chicken if the rosemary stalks are too limber. I didn't try this yet, but it sounds great. I did try the crushed rosemary in this marinade rather than sage and it was very good.
