Oh no - a MARROW in my organic vegetable box...

[morningpaper]

A MARROW - are they having a LAUGH? I thought this was just a comedy vegetable for flower shows.

Does anyone have a recipe involving marrow which is TASTY?

Anything which involves using the marrow as CONTAINER does not count.

Well, quite rightly so, then Tinker. In possession of an offensive vegetable.

Ew, marmite and marrow on the same thread.

It's OK MP, the marrow conversation has been teetering on the tasteless for some time now. Like the marrow itself really.

boom boom

Thta was a bad joke boom boom not a bomb boom boom

Yes Marina, I was greeted by a large chap with a huge weapon this morning at Cannon Street - a sight for sore eyes....

oh dear

Are you going to name and shame the box scheme that did this to you MP?

Sorry, chaps, but I think the success of the marrow lies in the skill of the cook .

sorry, did I lower the tone?

I have to confess I was distracted by trying to cash in my free AMT voucher for an iced latte to start scoping the talent this particular morning.

My mum used to stuff marrows which was nice apart from the marrow bit. Bone marrow on the other hand is delicious. St John serve it on toast and it is seriously mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
This thread has made me especially Marina resorting to "Curry the f*cker" as her answer!

I think they're a bit tasteless and I keep getting them in my box too. I just chop them small or grate them and hide them in sauces etc.

Dh insists they're lovely on their own steamed with butter put on at the end.

have to say the only goood use of a marrow is stuffing it like this

Wrap it in foil, send it back to organic box people and let them know that you will transfer your allegiance forthwith if they send you any more blotting paper masquerading as vegetable.

I was holding my breath in case that was rude Iota!

lucky for you spongge, that it wasn't a bat

too slow

We keep getting marrows and I am happy to name and shame the box scheme responsible-RIVERFORD.

Worse still,they left out my chocolate this week. [sad}

here you go MP blotting paper chutney!
should last you the winter

friend of ours came round a couple of nights ago and brought us as a 'present' 7 (yes count them) marrows from his allotment. I mean..what the hell am I supposed to do with 7 marrows?
