    Their pack is €1.49 for 500g. Your loose one is a bit cheaper per gram. SuperValu would have been €1.27 for 400g, and again more per gram for the pack. Parsnips just aren't that cheap.

    Why not grow your own.

    No need to pay people to plant it, no need to pay people to keep an eye during growing, no need to pay people to harvest it, no need to pay people to wash it, grade it and pack it, no need to pay for distribution and no need to give the supermarket the profit and contribution to retail costs either.

    You can do it all yourself and save €1.02
