I watched a video for dandelion oatmeal cookies the other day. Do people really eat dandelions? I ate dandelions a few times as a kid as a dare, but I don't remember them being all that exciting.

When I was a child, my Aunt put the stems in salads.

My iguana loves dandelions. They are readily available in the warm months to pick most anywhere. But I have seen them for sale in supermarkets and I have bought them in the winter months. So I guess somebody eats 'em if Wal-mart sells 'em.

I never ate them, but I know people do
I think the tea is a good blood cleanser I'd like to try the wine...is it sold in the regular liquor store?? |

Yes, very early in the Spring...and fiddleheads (ferns) are very popular here in Central Maine.

They weren't indigenous to this region until they were brought over on the mayflower. Dad made Brandy, grandmother made salad and the reason it's called dandelion is because the leave resemble lions teeth.

I watched a video for dandelion oatmeal cookies the other day. Do people really eat dandelions? I ate dandelions a few times as a kid as a dare, but I don't remember them being all that exciting. Yes,, I eat them all the time. I just go out on my lawn pick em and start eating them while I just stare out into space. My neighbors really don't bother with me.. although I don't know why. |
