Reply:Dandelions.. yes the seeds can be eaten,


so can the stems but drain the white stuff out and save the white stuff for external sores.


young leaves are good in salads,


the flowers good steamed with butter added to it


roots can be ground for seasoning or roasted to make a coffee substitute,


Broccolli the whole plant is edible. Spinach, Beets, Kholrabi, Carrots. That's all I can think of for now!
