I can't believe that there is so much hatred for the Dandelion! It's not just edible but every part is edible, and not too bad if cooked up right. My biggest gripe is that such a common weed is detested even though it has been proven to actually -improve- the overall functions of the circulatory system -without- side effects, and -without- a prescription. And it makes a pretty decent decaf latte. If there's proof that God really exists, it might just be the Dandelion -- yet we exterminate it as an offensive weed. Kind of ironic how history repeats itself..... end soapbox. When I lived in San Diego, bunch of years ago, there was a woman who remembered eating dandelion greens at her grandmother's house.. picked a bunch in the yard and fed 'em to the family- they ended up going to the emergency room 'cause they thought they were dying, turned out what she thought to be big dandelions were some relative of tobacco  John Hi John, that tobaccy juice can really turn a person green when swallowed. My uncle (god rest) used to chew that mail pouch stuff like it was going outta style, so as a youngin' I was always curious what the big attraction was, besides the cool spitting side effect. Never failed to make me wanna hurl, whenever I'd get the nerve to try it again  Don't do it dude. I did for a while in high School. Skoal Bandits came out towards the end, gave it up after that. I did like the wintergreen, great flavour  Landshark Nah, I have no desire to eat that stuff. |
