I like turnips. Does anyone else like turnips?


What we call turnips in Canada....Aussies call them 'swedes' in the grocery stores/green grocers...I love turnips!! oh I mean swedes...:? hhmmm I will have to check out what your version of turnips are.....and what we call them in Canada.

Cheers, Judy
 
Good one moose. LOL

I love after a big night out a nice warm tuna, anchovies and vegemite thickshake...mmmmmm, that gets the stomach working.
 
I'm into all the bizarre stuff as well; just about any offal - tongues ? oh I love a good tongue Muhahahahahaha! Duck tongues are one of my favourites! Black puddings, chickens feet, preserved jellyfish, snails. Don?t mind even eating Durian ? that weird, vile smelling Asian fruit! I?m also a chilli nut! I was dragged into judge for the Victorian Chilli Festival a couple of years ago ? not that I have ever sat down & eaten a plate of chillies ? I?m not into that! :wink:

Keep me clear of my two absolute fears in food: The dreaded Vegemite (what the hell is that stuff!) & the vegetable of witches Pumpkin uuurrrrrhhggg what?s that? GROSS!

I hate turnips. In fact, I came up with my own version of the important food groups. These are:
(1) Meats: This group includes Beef, Minces, Pork, Chicken, Bacon, Ham, etc. It is suggested and highly preferred that a minimum of 2 meats is served per meal.
(2) Breads: Includes things such as regular white bread, whole-grain, bread rolls, dinner rolls. Exotic crap such as Pita bread or Lebanese bread are not included. Wraps for mexican foods such as Burritos and Enchiladas are acceptable, although their classification as a "bread" is under review.
(3) Sauces: Very important companion to the meats food group. Includes things such as Tomato Sauce ("Fountain" brand only - "No-Name" crap is not considered acceptable), Gravys (Roast, Chicken and Beef Flavours - specialties are gravys such as Mum's home-made gravy using pan juices), White Sauce (although this has absolutely no recognisable flavour, it is a strangely necessary accompaniment to Corned Beef), Sweet Chili Sauce. Mayonnaise, Italian Dressing and Mushroom-based sauces are excluded.
(4) Coke: A necessary beverage and refresher for before, during and after meals, snacks and all other times.

...anyways after my silly ramblings, I admit I like vegies, and LOVE stir-frys. Yummy. Just I hate Turnip.

I 'spose I should keep to the thread and say - I can't remember eating a turnip! Aren't they things you feed to rabbits?

I do like vegetables (except the one I mentioned!), and since Simon mentioned it, I especially love this satay vegetarian tofu stir-fry I cook....ooooh God, when's LUNCH!? Hungry, hungry.....
 
meat is the best food group ever!!!!!!!!
i'm up for tryinhg (nearly) everything.....but bot veges!
 
did eat some fantastic chicken stomach in china though... and jellyfish, oh and bullfrog fried up JUST like popcorn chicken.

Jellyfish is so disgusting! Tripe is pretty yummy, although I haven't tried chicken stomache. Coke is yuck, I don't know why it's popular! (I'm sure that's alienated me from most of the people here).

I hate brussel(spelling?) sprouts. They taste like pooh.

Why do people hate brussells sprouts so much? They're not wonderful but they're not that bad.

Grapefruit is probably the most revolting thing to me, it tastes like poison, I can't believe people survive after eating it. Tonic water probably comes second.

Anyone want to get together for a big chillie eating contest? :D
 
Yay! Another coke hater! Do you hate it because of the taste, health, annoying advertising or economic reasons? There are lots of reasons to dislike it :)
 
Pretty much a combination of those reasons! The taste sucks and yeah its unhealthy as hell. Lol I've never met another coke hater :p
 
Have you seen what coke does to a rusty coin?Imagine what it does to your guts...
 
Yeah when kids lose teef I've heard their parents put it in a glass of coke to show them how it rots your teef, and the next day it is just a pile of crumbs - GEW!
 
I've heard that tooth destroying rumour, but don't believe it. I must try it one day!
It makes a darn fine toilet cleaner and yes, polishes metal up pretty nicely.
I must admit, it mixes well with whiskey though... but given the choice of anything else, I'll take it.
