Is it just me.........or does anyone else get cross when they buy a Cauliflower?

It seems you can't buy a Cauliflower anywhere these days without most of the green leaves chopped off!
Ok, perhaps it looks more attractive on the shelf because you can actually see the Cauli.....but i want all the green bits too.
I had a local farm shop which unfortunately closed down about 18 mnths ago. The Cauliflowers that were displayed in the shop had the green tops chopped off.........but you could nip out the back and grab one with all the green leaves still intact.

Perhaps's it's just me..........but i likes a bit of roughage i do!! :-S

Get them with green leaves on from the local farm shop.
