Everyone is Baldrick now - environment secretary suggests we eat turnips

[Minusorange]

I would like to see your seasonal English vegetable larder. Fridges are clearly a woke food storage system.

Well yes if the woke insist ALL veg is imported then a fridge would be critical lol

What do you mean? A bit of suede infused soup with some nubuck buns, what's not to like?

Edit: lol, yeah, bit of a typo

It is the height of culinary laziness, a one pot meal that in other cultures may be called a bourgignon. No boiling necessary just a low simmer for about six hours, the meat melts in the mouth and the vegetables are infused with the juices of the meat. Just open the door after work, heat a bowl, cut some bread and grab a fork.

My favourite type of food- add a few spoonfuls of paprika and it's cheap goulash.

Coffey does look like she would eat a turnip like an apple and savour every bite.

Reported for racism.
Swedes call swedes kålrot i think...

How can people be offended by a suggestion to eat seasonal British produce lol.
Speak about stupid media.

You'll all be living in 15min cities soon anyway, eating bugs and owning nothing.

It’s like the government saying “just use your left arm” but ignoring the fact they chopped off your right arm. Eating seasonal British produce is great but we don’t produce enough food to feed ourselves without imports. This shortage potentially points to a much bigger issue about food security.

2016 : "Make UK Great Again!"

2023 : "I never liked fresh fruit and veg anyway!"

And to overpopulation of course, that thorn no one wants to grasp. The two go hand in hand.

Don't get people moaning about lack of fancy unseasonal veg in February, 1st world problems and all that. What's wrong with egg and chips or mince in gravy

Have you seen the price of eggs? Or is that a norn iron specific problem at the moment? 4 ******* quid for a dozen!

Given that their short sightedness means the entire pension system is based upon increased population eternally, they can't even bring up world wide over population, as they require it for 'profits in capitalism '

 

[Sankari]

Hah, the joke's on her, I already eat turnips!

 

[C Kent]

After that giff-gaff ad last year where they predicted folks would be eating turnips in 2023 Im looking forward to chainmail making its comeback now, bring it on!

I do love a bit of haggis, neeps and tatties to be fair.

What I'm not a fan of is contemptuous politicians talking to us like 17th century peasants.

But we are peasants to them. You can be sure Coffey isn't tucking into a plate of boiled turnip for dinner.

Yeah but food security isn't news to anyone with half a braincell. I doubt any EU country can sustain itself.
You wanna grow all your own stuff then start paying 5 quid a kilo for lettuce and cucumber. Most Food is still relatively cheap even after the past years bs.

Another blinder by the government. How come they can keep hitting them out of the park??
