Day 13: Why does America hate leeks?



I love leeks. Danish: Porrer.
I knew the Danish word before I knew the English word, because leeks never entered or exited my mouth until Denmark. Why?

Maybe South Dakota isn't the best example. Maybe I (kitchen incompetent) am an even worse example (a porrer example, if you will).... Any leek conversation and/or updates are encouraged as I cannot follow their American progress from Denmark. And if anyone is willing to make pro-leek propaganda items to help the US movement, know, I am on your side. Go Leeks.

  1. I am with you on your confusion about leeks (especially in SD). I did see them at HyVee today though, so they exist here but, for some reason, are not popular... although, ive never knowingly eaten one :D... so don't listen to me :) I really like that cutting board, very trendy :P xoxoxo
