Ugliest vegetable in Britain
Mike sez, "The National Trust, a British charity, held a competition to garden-growers across the country to grow the ugliest vegetable possible. This year's winner was Mrs. Hilary Nellist from Bedford with her parsnip from the deep. The contest seeks to promote organically grown fruit and vegetables. Some may not look good enough to end up on supermarket shelves, but they quite possibly taste better and are better for you. Look at the picture of the parsnip and tell me Cthulhu didn't have his hand in this one." Link (Thanks, Mike!)
