Find someone who has turnip seeds to give you? I've tried twice lately (before and after the update) and had no luck. From what I can tell, though, they don't seem very useful anyways. I many not have unlocked something on this playthrough yet, but turnip stew doesn't seem to stack up well against what you can now do with carrots and onions.

Turnips are generally better than carrots, and onions are better than turnips. I use plenty of turnips for black soup personally.

As far as finding them, I just got lucky in a swamp biome, but in hindsight they don't seem very common and I haven't seen a lot of them in the 3-4 swamps I've found so far.

I forgot about black soup. By the time I got some turnip seeds and had enough to use, I had moved on to onions.
