William i think they taste better with the soil on them !

Ah, that reminds me - in Wales we often got small boiled potatoes with the peel (Schale) and people ate them as they were. In Germany we remove the peel before we eat them. The first evening I removed it, but it was a laborious work, the next times I ate them as they were, but it tasted a bit strange.

At home we do this, too, but in the hotels or restaurants we get them peeled. However, in Wales all ate them with the skin.

We say directly under the skin - only with apples it's usually in the skin - but you can't eat it any longer as they use such a lot of poison to get bright apples.

Prince Charles spoke out the other day about GM foods,and the critics,for what they are worth,have been kind so far but one said it is necessary !
I agree with the prince.

I think all GM food tastes the same bland !
We dont have many flies or birds or ladybirds or bees,or butterflies I could go on and on,I wonder if this GM thing has killed them off ? however we will be to blame for polution I guess.
I was lucky enough to have a friend in Pembrokeshire who brought me some home grown pembrokes spuds...........blimey I had forgot what they tasted like I ate them just on their own to savour the taste delicious ! with a knob of butter.
GM spuds wont be the same again.

Will  anything be the same as it was ?? I doubt it!!
