RE: Food that grows itself
Yes, the head does appear like a small thistle but much smaller. I think that it is a great survival remedy but whether you will find it to your taste I do not know. However, it will keep you alive combined with your Acorns and Pine Cones. Dandelion is rather bitter but if you cover with a flower pot or bucket a week before you eat it it will blanch it and most of the bitterness will be gone. Nettle pudding is made with Nettle leaves and Oatmeal. Enclose in a cloth and boil. Again, it will help to sustain you in hard times. Many more plants out there that will keep the fire of life burning. Kenneth Eames.
