              I love turnips!

              But, they're not my favorite...I think we need the poll-ability to select more than one!

                    NO, I HADN'T SEEN THIS!! But I have now, and I voted for TURNIPS!

                    THEY'RE NOT EXCITING? Honey, you've never had MINE! I make them ALL THE TIME and my non-Atkins family LOVES them!!

                    TASTE UGLY? NO WAY NO HOW!

                    A PAIN TO PEEL? They peel easier than potatoes! Use a potato peeler and voila!

                    I THINK YOU DOUBTERS NEED TO COME TO MY HOUSE FOR MASHED/HASHBROWNED/SCALLOPPED TURNIPS!

                      I think they are a pretty good substitute for potatoes. I've used them with roasts and such. My favorite has to be baked though like a french fry. I must admit though, I had to call my mother-in law to ask her what the heck it was when I first started Atkins a few years back LOL

                          Blah.

                          Turnips are nasty.

                          Props to those than find them edible! LOL
