Barnacles Loc: Northern California

I haven't had dandelion greens, but I've eaten quite a few salads made with miners lettuce.

Foodfisher Loc: SO. Cal coast

Wife goes for "the piece that went over the fence last" anytime turkey is on the menu. Never any competition from me. My taste buds are too refined.

Do any of you all remember eating Dandelion Greens? Or the marrow from Round Steak Bones ? To this day we eat fresh dandelion greens, water cress ,and my favorite the the little bit of bone marrow, am I crazy ,,well yes of course but thats another topic, the old time stuff tastes like nothing they can artificially match now , Whats your old Favorites ?I still make Caeser Salad Dressing with real Anchovie Fillets,,

Kind of like asking my granddaughters silly stare when I ask her, you want some frog legs? Digging up wild carrot or onions, my sardines look like I'm eating minnows 🤣 if it rocks your taste buds eat it

Anybass Loc: Pa.

How about the cartilage on chicken bones and dipping some real Jewish rye bread in the red juice from a steak or roast? To each his own.

They sell bone marrow broth here for a lot of $$$. Tried dandelion greens, too bitter. Put a little in salad sometimes. They are supposed to be really good for you. Marrow is great!

Purslane grows like a weed in all plants and yard. It's kind of slimy to eat tho. Maybe give it a try with the beans and chili.
