The deciding factor was as always, my wife. She still couldn't stand the taste. Everything we cook is cooked for two. If only one of the two doesn't like something, it doesn't really make any sense to cook it again. It isn't as much fun trying things alone. I think I will place turnips in the "don't try again" category and move on to something else. Thanks!

Maybe grind them up fresh and add other ingredients to make a milder form of "horseradish" sauce?

Personally as I stated before, I love turnips. I prefer them raw in sauces, relishes, slaws, fruit smoothies and salads, but also like them cooked in soups.

So I am not sure what to say to someone who doesn't like them. I guess grind them up and feed them to the chickens.Feed them whole to the pigs? Or put them in the compost pile? Donate them to the food bank charity?

But ultimately if you don't like them raw or cooked in any recipe at all, and don't have chickens or pigs to feed, then I guess the solution is just grow something else you do like that also benefits the garden.
