AIBU to object to the wording?

[ChasTittyBeltUp]

on this weeks Mumsnet Recipe of the week?

"Seasonal neon pink sticks" to describe rhubarb???

Since when were they neon? And it sits wrong...it scans badly...
"Roast rhubarb and apple crumble is a great use of the seasonal neon pink sticks"

It annoys me every time I see it! The recipe sounds lovely...but someone should have thought about that description "neon pink sticks"

Yeah but it's girl's food and therefore should be described that way.

If it wasn't for that, I might have fed rhubarb to my boys and turned them gay.

Bollocks to that.
YANBU..neon pick sticks?
Have the cast of TOWIE "ritten" the recipe this week?

Now I want a bowl of A&R crumble and custard

Me too
but maybe with a side of rhubarb and ginger jam on toast.

Rhubarb

neon pink stick

I rest my case.

True Worra. Boys can only have Blueberry Crumble.

Neon pink sticks.... it's clearly an ex-raver mum isn't it?

Lol I've just seen it!

"Recipe of the week
It's forced rhubarb time. Mummyof2boys' roast rhubarb and apple crumble is a great use of the seasonal neon pink sticks and perfect for warming you up on a freezing cold night."

I can't help thinking a neon pink Rampant Rabbit would do the trick better than a rhubarb and apple crumble.

Although 'forced rhubarb' has its own connotations

neon pink stick...now my son whould go for rhubarb if it was described like that :)

lol chastity
