"A weed is a plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered."
--Ralph Waldo Emerson

There are plenty of "weeds" which are edible and tasty. I posted a blurb
about thistles' edibility not too long ago. Everybody's familiar with
dandelion greens and dandelion wine. Purslane is considered a weed by many
but it's very good for you and has a nice lemony flavor. Nettle soup is one
of the great joys of spring.s

I *love* eating weeds!
