Nicholas, I have eaten rutabaga and Jerusalem artichoke during WW II. It was not good at all.

I have stood at the produce in Whole Foods and admired their fortitude, but i have actually never even knowingly MET a person who has consmued a rutabaga. Are you prepared to introduce me to rutabaga's. A way of cooking them that makes them taste like pancakes with maple syrup, perhaps. N Nicholas S.

But I remind you all that in some parts of the country, "eating local" would reduce us to rutabagas for most months of the winter. I wouldn't like that, and neither would my body.

Glad to see the White House has decided to have a huge organic garden (see link below). Makes me realize it is time to get out there myself (at least pretty soon!)
