I’m reminded of the Dr. Kellogg character type in “The Road to Wellville”, boasting of the benefits of his whole-grain diet:

“My turds are only slightly moist, firm, and have no more smell than a warm muffin.”

Quoth Spoke:

That’s not because they’re starving; that’s because dandelions are yummy. Harvest them in the spring before the first flowering, and eat them raw.

Quoth constanze:

I was eating dandelion before eating dandelion was cool. My gramma made dandelion salad every year for Easter, and now I’m keeping up the tradition.
