It just occurred to me that we may have another north/south thing here.
You lot took to the Swede thread without batting an eye...but where I come from no one ever calls them swedes - they call both turnips and swedes, turnips!
In fact, no one ever really seems to know what a swede is!
Anything round, yellowy/orange that you mash is called turnip.
Is this yet another lazy, uneducated northern thing?
Are you southerners talking about swedes on a daily basis? Are turnips a poor mans swede?
