Not puns, but I hope this helps. from Prairie Home Companion 12/31/05:

*Garrison Keillor:* ...brought to you by RCA, the Rutabaga Council of
America, representing America's most under-appreciated vegetable,
rutabagas.

So many people confuse rutabagas with turnips. They're not alike at all.
Rutabagas have a pleasant yellow-orange color, large friendly-looking
leaves, and a smooth dense texture. Turnips are fish-belly white and purple
on top like a bad bruise and have hairy leaves and taste brackish, like
swamp water. Rutabagas are the root crop that any sensible person would
prefer.

Rutabaga — it's suitable for any occasion. Rutabagas' firm yet impetuous
flavor go well with Bordeauxs, Chablis, or even champagne. Use julienned
rutabagas to clear the palate before dessert. Stir-fried rutabagas can bulk
up any Chinese dish. Or how about rutabaga ratatouille. And instead of an
olive in your Martini, why not try a rutabaga wedge.

Rutabaga— it's America's under-utilized vegetable.
