    THESE are capers. I use them in salads which you don't eat :p or in fish pie. They're an aquired taste.

    No! :doh: I know what capers are, and I like them. I just don't know what family of food they belong to, or how you would grow them! :p
    If you lend someone a tenner and never see them again, it was probably worth it.

    :wave: Hello mate, long time no see! Only 4k left then? Nice one! :T

    I only like spinach in Indian food, preferably sag paneer. ;)

    Rockets are for bonfire night. :p

    Be more specific please. :cool: Don't say "what are they anyway?" when you actually mean "I just don't know what family of food they belong to, or how you would grow them!". :rolleyes:;):p

    I may be helpful but I'm not a mind reader. :D
