Organic Rhubarb straight out of the ground, grown in wakey beats this forced rubbish and supermarket cack hands down. Wheres the tartness in the forced rhubarb needs to have abit of bite.

Strewed rhubarb with abit of greek yoghurt umm

Can't agree - and I'm qualified to comment as my family (Macaulay) were the largest growers of the stuff in years gone by - most of the land now being Wakefield 41 Ind Est (as they couldn't give rhubarb away in the 70's!)

The forced rhubarb is the one which, courtessy of the Oldroyd's, is being pushed for regional status - as with Jersey Royals etc - as Yorkshire Forced Rhubarb.

Most of the production still happens locally anyway - so let's not denigate our own eh!

i know!

I feel guilty now for never purchasing any in the 70s despite being about 6, and therefore banishing trb's forebears to the dole queue.

i didnt even like rhubarb crumbled in school dinners, i believe i used the word yak on several occasions, in my cinematic eye now as i shake my childish head the camera pans back and the gates are closing on another local industry, with a bloke looking a bit like marvin the android patting his tearful sons head ruffling his hair and saying dont worry son well find something.... and its my bloody fault

if id have known id have forced it down AND ASKED FOR SECONDS.
