Philosophical Vegan Forum

I have considered eating wild plants for a long time, but for some reason decided that doing so was extremist and nasty somehow. I have always feared that I am going to eat some poisonous plant.

Lately I have been looking into it again, possibly considering Clover and Dandelion as something to try out. Not for any magical healing BS or anything, but just to see what it is like, and possibly as a free food source.

Thoughts? Have you ever done this?

It can be excellent as a free food source, although these foods are not palatable to most people, and you may want to take care to research oxalates and considerations from eating a large amount of them.
Plants that grow in the wild are usually tougher, physically and chemically, which makes them less delicious. Our cultivated plants are particularly soft, made so to serve as a human food source, although that also makes them extremely vulnerable to pests.
