Poles eat carp for their Christmas Dinner. I don't think it's eaten at all in the UK.

My Mrs had a Polish colleague, who commented that now her grandmother was no longer around at least they didn't have to eat bloody carp at Christmas. Seems that none of the family, maybe excepting the grandmother, actually liked it, but it was "tradition" so they hd to have it

I knew I’d seen it round here, but for the life of me couldn’t think in relation to what, I wondered if it was because Bass had bought out one of the Yorkshire breweries, but makes sense that the Pub landlord would wear that tie.

Why don't people eat the green leaves you get on a cauliflower? I bought a cauli' the other day to put in my slow cooker, along with other veg. I was going to put the leaves in my compost bucket, but thought they looked good enough to put them in the slow cooker as well, so I did. They turned out ok, tasting just like cabbage leaves.

The bigger green leaves tend to be a bit tough, and also often more damaged. We do use the whiter inner leaves, and I'll sometimes tear off the green part from the white spine of the bigger leaves, and use those.

I use them as part of soup and that works ok and saves waste.
