Last Sunday I saw this (http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/veggies/chard1.html), and bought it for the first time.

Had never tried it before......

tastes like spinach.

I used to get this a lot in Spain and use it in the same way as spinach.

If I buy it again I will try making an egg frittata with it.

Actually I think it looks nice. That's why I bought it!

Its taste is similar to spinach - so if you do not like that..........................

They sell that in loads of places. Julian Graves is the best place and they have stalls all over the place www.juliangraves.co.uk (http://www.juliangraves.co.uk)

I've been eating lots and lots of oryx. It's a lovely meat. More tender, and less gamey, than venison.

Had to look that up Andy! Is it difficult to cook?

I have no idea, Maureen. I kept ordering it off the menu in Namibia and it kept turning up tasting great (as long as it was fairly rare - the one piece I had that was well done was a bit chewy and disappointing)
