RHUBARB

Started by: admin (1896)

Anyone got any rhubarb that they don't use? At one time any garden worth its name grew it.. I told my grand kids I would bake them a Rhubarb pie. They have never tasted it..

I have always found rhubarb to have a too tarty, strong taste for me, we used to have Rhubarb Crumble and Custard at school, and although it was edible, I much preferred Apple Crumble

Wait till February and go to Wakefield Rhubarb Festival. My mate, Slug, will have his burger-bar there!

In the 1960s I remember seeing 'Wild Rhubarb' growing at the side of Barley Fields

I used to like having lots of custard with rhubarb, proper custard made with sugar, proper sugar, the sort of sugar which rots your teeth, because it is 'real' sugar

I like rhubarb and had it today with custard,£1.75 for a good bunch from Morrisons.My uncle grew it on his allotment and my auntie used to give it to us uncooked with a load of sugar to dip it in.
