Louise Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Don't knock it till you've tried it When I was a baby my mother used to give me vegetable sticks to chew on as I was teething and I kind of got a liking for them it was years before I could tolerate cooked carrot and I have never been able to eat cooked neeps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 We used to eat raw neeps at Halloween - back in the good old days when we still made turnip lanterns instead of horrible americanised pumpkin jobs. The smell of burning turnip still transports me back to the good old days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
