Courgette Shortage Crisis. Don't Worry....

Jack Straw · Jan 19, 2017

Just look out for a veg dealer. There's plenty on the streets in Brighton. On the increase, especially in the Hanover area.

Hope so, I do like a nice courgette, especially in tempura batter.

This is the latest "Doomsday" scenario that the BBC have jumped.

It's hardly the end of civilisation when there's a shortage of courgettes but amusing when so much attention is given to it.

Hardly Doomsday, other crops are affected in southern Spain too. However I welcome the loss of this flavourless green tube of slime !

Stay strong. Together we'll somehow get through this Courgette Shortage Crisis.

Obviously. And have you noticed that Corbyn and Courgette both start with the letter 'C'? A coincidence? I think not.

I was planning to do a courgette dish with Xmas dinner, so bought three. As things transpired, I didn't get round to cooking them, so they're still in the "salad crisper" drawer of my fridge. Last time I checked (about a week ago), the "crisper" part of the drawer description had become redundant. By now, I'm sure I have a pile of green slush. In the interest of community spirit, I'm happy to sell this slush at a suitably inflated price to anybody getting Courgette Withdrawal Syndome. Caveat emptor. Obviously.

Get Mrs@Goldstone1976 to make some courgette and lemon cake, they're absolutely tasty.
My Mrs does as alternative, due to gluten intolerance.
That's if you buy any again

F..king unreal. Openly offering to sell courgettes on here. First the Bottlejobber bloke gets through .....then this. Bozza you are past it.

Spain has been getting it all in the past few weeks, rain, ice and there even snow on beach at Beniform 2 days ago. Planet plastic of Almeria and Murcia must be doing it hard

I do like a baked courgette as a side dish.
