Hello everyone just harvested a bit of rhubarb for a crumble, sliced it up and and found a few little red spots inside it, is this normal and ok to eat? It was only on about 6 chunks so I've left them out incase but just to be on the safe side for next time I thought I'd ask the experts on here hehe!

    Custard, cream or ice cream? 

    Or the real luxury …. evaporated milk? 😋

    Haha well the kids invented a new option this evening, a dollop of whipped cream WITH poured cream over the top!?!
