- The elusive cress
What happened to cress?
It used to be on every sandwich and lurk on the side of every salad but where did it go?

Tell me honestly do you miss cress? The poor little thing seems to have disappeared and yet in my youth you simply could not shake it off.
It was lurking on every salad plate, stuffed into every sandwich and scattered on everything at my mum's buffet parties....
Do you miss it or do you still support the cress?

I always loved growing cress in primary school
Looks like we all did that - tee hee......
We had to grow it in primary school. Everyone waited for the exciting day where we got to eat the cress in sandwiches, with processed white bread and margarine... Ahh the 90s.
wow yes us too I had forgotten that!
In the 70’s.. same story
I actually still grow some varieties of cress and really like it. Some varieties are also extremely nutritious (in comparison to other leafy veg)
Wow thats great I am going to grow some again soon
Go for it!! I love that its easy and doesn’t take long to grow
I loved cress! Especially on an egg sandwich. I wondered where it had gone.
I think it’s with all the missing socks and pens somewhere.....
I never had it...
I'm with you, now I'm going to have to go look it up and see just what all the fuss is about.
Exactly 😂
