ANYWAY!!!! my POINT was that the flippant attitude of the publisher is an indicator of how they are more than happy to trample all over people and their feelings. once again, a simple civil apology would NOT have made mountains out of molehills. yes, charles, you are correct, it is the attitude.

Don't be ridiculous. It was a grossly offensive error for which any sane individual would be rushing to apologise. All his attitude has done is inflame a minor situation into something that's hit the news, and that's just stupid.

1 swede, peeled and diced
1 tsp salt
50g/2oz butter
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Method

1. Place the swede in a pan of cold water and sprinkle in 1 tsp of salt.
2. Bring to the boil and reduce the heat to a slow simmer.
3. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes or until tender. Drain the swede and return to the pan.
4. Mash with a potato masher, stir in the butter, salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste, and serve.
Swedes have been a root vegetable a lot longer than there have been arrogant Australian publishers
