What we call rutabagas are large yellowish turnips -- I think they are also called "Swedish turnips". I like them in certain configurations, including sometimes in soup.

You gotta be pretty hungry to want a Cornish pasty - especially the nasty pre-packaged ones that used to lurk in motorway service stations. I prefer the Forfar Bridie myself. I think root-vegetable-nomenclature is highly localised. For me, the little white turnips are swedes, and the larger yellow ones are just turnip. Turnips. Yup.
