‘Sprouts could be a Christmas hit as a Cambridgeshire farmer gives the vegetable a novel twist’ I read this morning! He has developed a red one which will be in the shops for Christmas.
I love sprouts. the only one in my family who does. So I am looking forward to trying them

Oh come on Hywel, nothing like young tender sprouts tossed in butter and a little black pepper, yummy.
Dont like the thought of Red ones though Drc, they would clash with the carrots.lol.
