......that the Carrots I purchase from my local Sainsbury's Supermarket come from the district Almolonga, in Guatemala, South America.

A lot of praying is involved in encouraging their growth activity...

...(as well as a few Pesticides).

I refer to them as; "Tree-Trunks".

One of them will feed a family of five for a fortnight*..... :o ....!

Paul.....I like my Veg!... :mrgreen: ....!

* Probably?....I sometimes exaggerate.... ;) .... ;) ...!

The 'santo' in Monsanto means 'Saint'. So there might be something to all of that 'Holy-ness' of those carrots. Ha!

Maybe you should see their rabbits -- one of them might make your neighbors' cats think they've met up with Sylvester's "big mouse" :shock: kangaroo...

Bunny Rabbits!

During the War, my dear old Mum used to make Rabbit Stew or Roast Rabbit. A cheap and abundant meal for Wartime countryside Folk...

(..we evacuated to the Countryside of Herefordshire at the start of the Blitz of the City of London by the German Hun..).

It has a funny-old taste, all of its own...not really to my liking....(Rabbit...not the Hun)... :roll: ....!

If the Germans had tasted it beforehand, they wouldn't have bothered invading us.

The Neighbours Cats, on the other hand, pre-roasted, make a lovely Curry!

(I compete with the local Chinese Curry House).... ;) ....!

I am sure that all Sainsbury's Vegetables are Genetically Modified to make them extra large and shapely.

I can think of other things which would benefit from such modification..... :pray: ....!

Paul....As Roger Rabbit says;..."That's all Folks!".... :dance: ....!
