Today I was introduced to KOHLRABI for the first time, a vegetable whose name apparently literally translates as ‘rutabaga’ and which tastes a bit like the stem of a broccoli. Luckily the other answers were a lot easier to find today, although I had a bit of trouble with the spangram, FALLHARVEST, because here in the UK we say ‘autumn’ and not ‘autumn’. But no matter – I was able to find enough answers that eventually the spangram revealed itself to me, and although it still took a while to figure out that the last word was indeed the aforementioned KOHLRABI, I got there without needing any hints .
