One of the major producers of vitamin supplements has had their licence pulled after dodgy production practises came to like. A lot of people here are talking about supplements now. One thing struck me: a lot of people are taking things like garlic and horseradish. I don't take those. I eat them. They're condiments! To me, "Did you take your garlic" sounds as odd as asking "Did you take your potatoes?"

"Yes, when I took my spinach and lamb chops."

"I took a steak and eggs last night."

"Every weekend I take fish and chips."

"I use a meat pie supplement."

When the doctor advised me to take more vitamins I started drinking tomato juice and eating more vegemite on toast. Oh dear. It's time to take some coffee.

Yes, if you browse up and down the supplements aisle in any health food store in the US, you'll see bottles of pills which purport to be concentrates of any of a number of vegetables. So you'll see bottles of garlic concentrate, bottles of onion concentrate, as well as broccoli, red peppers, and asparagus. If they only had black bean sauce pills, one could do a very nice stirfry.
