So true and same with Brussel sprouts, carrots, etc even though it isn't the best for the
fruit/veg. I do like the big leek tops for stock, and the long artichoke stems are tasty if
peeled...
Great looking garlic tom and gss. I need to increase my amount this fall and took note of
your GeorgianFire and RRed. I ran out last month so I know now about what we need.
