...but not now.

QuoteBritain is experiencing a cauliflower shortage after extreme weather killed off much of this year's crops.

Heavy rainfall in June destroyed crops in Lincolnshire, and alternative European supplies wilted in last month's heatwave.

Cauliflower prices have soared and some farmers have suffered financial losses after the destruction of their crops.

The shortages were described as "very concerning" by a spokesman for the Brassica Growers Association.

Other brassica - including cabbage, broccoli and Brussels sprouts - are also in short supply

Thanks the BBC for making each sentence a separate paragraph, I have trouble reading multi-sentence paragraphs. Anyone gonna miss their brassies? It'll be a shame not to have roasted broc with a Sunday dinner.

Typical, I've only just taught myself to make cauliflower cheese.
Fuck Brexit.

Peter Glazebrook, and his wife Mary, national judges from the Giant Vegetable Society crowned one of Peter's prize white brassicas - a monster at 60lb and 6ft across - the biggest cauliflower ever!

This is all leaf. Like someone tells you they've got a big nob but they've just got loads of pubes.

I dunno, there's a lot of glans there too.

I guess we'll have to substitute steak for cauliflower when making a cauliflower steak. Ditto with rice.

If you've never put roasted cauliflower in a curry you're a cunt.

Shoulders?-Stomach!

Cauliflower is meh, definitely fine, edible, but have consumed this dozens of ways and never thought 'jesus wept this truly is the flavour and texture experience I was lacking in my life'. Including romanesco cauliflower, that fractal fucker.

It's no Jerusalem artichoke, I'll give you that.

The joke is on them as I already pay an extortionate amount on cauliflowers, by purchasing them in needlessly overpackaged and tiny portions, combined with fragments of broccoli.  So when these new bumper prices hit the supermarkets I will simply sidestep into buying normal cauliflower at the same price!
