I'm old enough to remember the joy of new potatoes, Jersey Royals,
Cyprus new, or whatever. Now everything tastes of ****, whether it's
from Waitrose or the farmers' market. The only decent tasting spuds are
frozen mash or McCain's Simply Gorgeous chips. I've grown the most
delicious crop in builders buckets outside my back door, so what's so
bloody difficult?
And don't get me started about apples......
Last seasons Jersey Royals were just as tasty as ever, here. But so called
new anything like that if forced is often tasteless. Thinking of out of
season stawberries. Look great but taste of nothing.
