Bill...........you KNOW that..........cause you must live in New England. Rutabaga's are a little longer than turnips......have a different color leaf and they're actually called Table turnips. We don't see them often on the West Coast where I am but they are delicious! Thank's for reminding me about them.

I love to cook and that is the reason I know the difference between the two,

Also.........I'm OLD.........heeheeheehee

I'm not from New England, wherever that is. Sorry, I really thought that rutabaga is a swede (see: http://www.tauroscatology.com/swedes.htm ). I like swedes boiled, mashed, with some butter* and pepper on, with meat, other veg., and plenty of gravy.



*Butter. *NOT* margarine of any sort.
