Seitan Chinese-style (it's sold as "braised wheat gluten) is yummy.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
You need to get turnips (this by the way is strictly the ONLY dish where turnips are allowed anywhere near my stomach) and lashings and lashings of yummy mashed potato
whilst chiming in on the haggis-love, I should point out that most Scots of my acquaintance have said "turnips" but actually meant swede. Which makes for that nice orangey blob plus white blob plus brown blob effect on the plate. Mmmm haggis. It's like peppery meaty porridgy stuff. In a good way.

sssshhh, meara. If the Swedes find out I've told you, I'll have to kill you.

Strawberry disappointment.
All of which led to the best banner I ever saw at a football game, when Scotland were playing Sweden, some wag had a banner that said "Swedes are neeps". Ahh, raises a smile to this day.

Bwah! Oh, that's nice. Like the local lad who put a sign up outside the junkyard which had rusty cars piled high inside it, saying "Car Park Full". Nice.

NOW you're talking. Arbroath Smokies are indeed lovely. Good breakfast food, 'specially with poached eggs. I'm also partial to Cloutie dumplings, although I can't spell 'em.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I think Fay's talking about what we call a rutabaga.
meara - Apr 03, 2003 3:03:53 pm PST #3076 of 9843
A rutabega?
Y'know, I realize I have only a vague idea of what a turnip looks like, and though I recognize "rutabega" as a type of vegetable, I have NO idea what they're like, or how they are similar/different from a turnip. Hmm.
I kept meaning to try haggis while in scotland, but...
I also did not get a chance to try poutine in Montreal. I really wanted to, but accidentally waited until my last day, and then the place I went was OUT!
