Conflicting informtion on origin
I usually buy my watercress from the local farm shop as they always sell English watercress, but last week I bought some from Tesco as it said on the back of the package : "One of our trusted growers, Sean Ede, has been growing watercress since 1982 across 10 farms in Dorset and Hampshire." so I presumed it was English watercress. However, when I got it home I noticed on the front of the pack it says "Produce of USA" which is very misleading. I have to add that it was delicious as well as being nice and peppery, but I think you will agree that the packet gave conflicting information.
Insist in longer cuttings

I buy this tasty green salad item every week,
Dark greens are good for eyesight, helping to ward off macular degeneration. It’s great with salads and in sandwiches. I prefer British watercress when available, and it only grows in clean fresh water. It’s rich in iron, with a peppery taste. It’s been around for years and years because people love it. It used to be in bunches at green grocers.
I love watercress but I think the product could be
I love watercress but I think the product could be improved, there seem to be a lot of thick end stems which are eatable but so nice.
Watercress.
Perfectly adequate for almost immediate use. Flavour is strong enough, and this product has (so far) always arrived in a fresh condition. Occasionally there have been rather more chunky stems than I would prefer, but overall a reliable purchase for fresh salads.
