Hot take Wednesday. When a recipe says to scoop out the seeds in tomatoes or cucumbers for a salad or whatever. No. I paid for those seeds. They are going in. I don’t care if it makes it soggy. Plus that’s extra work that I’m not prepared to commit to.
Fully agree. I quite like it grated with a squeeze of lime/lemon on it and some black pepper. It has a unique sulfur laden burn but is also cool and refreshing. Peeling the turnip reduces the burn.
When I was a kid you used to be able to get a tray of soup/stew mixed veg from Safeway. I used to eat the celery, someone else the carrot. I can’t remember what else was in there but all that would be left would be the turnip and the parsnip. No one wanted them.

it’s good food , plus it’s nice on a hot day
Save more time and just throw out the whole cucumber. Genuinely the worst vegetable ever.
I believe that dishonour belongs to the chokoe
I nominate the turnip. There’s a reason why it gets pickled. Because it’s weird.
Turnip isn’t the most exciting vegetable but it’s certainly not the worst

Tzaziki. Pickles. You shut your whore mouth.
No way. Cucumber soup on a hot day is the best. Cucumber, yogurt, mint, bit of water and salt & pepper. For those days when it’s too hot to chew.
Try this:
Yogurt
Salt
Squeeze of Lime
Black pepper
diced tomatoes (optional)
Grated cucumber (into thin strips)
Give it a nice whirl and it makes an excellent side on a warm day!
I like that!
:(
Cucumbers, capsicums, carrots, and lettuce are the only vegetables I actually like
Cucumbers are just expensive crunchy water, does absolutely nothing for me. Delete this vegetable
Correction: celery is the worst vegetable ever. I will die on this hill.
Nope. ‘Tis the perfect vehicle for conveying peanut butter into one’s mouth
No, apple wins that title
Apple, cheese, & peanut butter!
If I ate peanut butter I would maybe, just maybe, feel differently. But I don’t.

Somes Coleses still have those trays. So does Piedmontes.
Parsnips are delicious, fightme!
I don’t want to fight you. You can have all the tasteless, colourless, pointless parsnips in the world. I will not be missing them.
