Yes, they really are rutabagas, but we've never seen them almost white inside before! Same common Purple Top variety we've always grown, whenever we've grown them before.

They have a mild flavor, very similar to a mild, sweet cabbage core; very pleasant; no 'bite' or bitterness at all.

Put several large ones into plastic bags, and stored them in the downstairs fridge. Tonight, we processed 7 largish vacuum sealer bags of cubes, and stuffed them into the freezer. Nearly the same amount left to process tomorrow evening.

Any ideas what caused this, and how to duplicate it next time?
