That could be. I can't remember where I got it now. May well have come in
the CSA box. The first CSA that I went with wasn't very good. I remember
complaining here of the potatoes that I got. They were so encrusted in dirt
that it took me next to forever to get them to the eating stage. And twice,
I got cabbage that was so bitter, it was inedible.
