Did you know something about radishes?

In Greek and Roman times, the radish was very different from the ones we grow today.

The radish was grown for winter storage back in those days and often weighed 50 – 100 lb (22 – 45 kg) each! They were either eaten raw or cooked and seasoned with honey and vinegar.

That would be a very big radish!
