Hi Mike, and list. Found the horseradish folk, and bought two good sized
plants for 10 bucks! Left one with the dtr who lives up there, and
brought the other one home. Our daughter, Jackie, cut a little bit from
the bottom of the root, chewed it up, and said" Huh, that's nothing."
Then it hit her, hot, sweet, a different horseradish than she had ever
before tasted! It is terrific stuff. I am going to stick my root into a
planter, and see what transpires. If you do a google search, there are
several places in the States who ship the roots, one very notable one in
Oregon, and another in Ohio, the place in Oregon is cheaper than the one
in Ohio, also lots of info is available as to growing, etc. Thanks, Mike
for that URL, these two kids are just getting into this, and they are
working at a health food restaurant in Courtenay BC to earn their daily
bread, while they build up their wasabi business. The URL is:
