Is there another kind of turnips other than purple top? I know that there is a
root veggie called 'rutabagas' which are yellowish in flesh and very strong
flavored but rutabagas were earen by cattle and peasants during the MA.
Turnips are by nature much milder in flavor. Thanks for the info in advance.
