ive never tried them, but you should just give them ago and let us know:)
What have you got to loose
Chipping, baking, boiling fried after boiling and of course roasting
thanks.....will do them and let you all know later :)
They were ok ;D ;D
I've always grown Kestrel, the best all rounder, great size and the slugs tend to leave them alone. :D
The biggest slug i have is a pensioner with an empty carrier bag. I swear he can smell them being dug up.

I thought this was going to be someone asking how you grow chips. I was all set to explain about potatoes and how food doesn't grow as we get it from the supermarket. ;D
