December 9, 20196 yr Which country are parsnips generally sourced? Interested to know as my Thai wife loves the UK grown varieties due to the sweetness and texture. Never heard of Thai parsnips, though could be wrong. Thanks.
December 11, 20196 yr The ones in Thailand are imported from Australia, and are expensive,they could grow them here,as they are already growing carrots,Kohlrabi,and leeks, I wish the kings Project here in Chiang Mai would grow them ,swedes as well, regards Worgeordie

I purchased some several months ago in the Royal Project section of Gourmet Market; Emporium. Perhaps grown on a small scale, most going to restaurants. I like roasted vegetables and the parsnips I roasted along with cauliflower & leeks were delicious. Edited December 15, 20196 yr by dddave

Tesco long grain rice £2.25kg. In Thailand not very much. Imported products can be expensive in any country, although I take your point that certain imported foods in Thailand are a bit shocking.

We're not in the UK, we're in Thailand! The UK price is irrelevant to the OP's question which was "where can I buy parsnips" (in Bangkok). What have soup prices in the UK got to do with parsnips' price in Bangkok?
