Thanks for sharing your experience with "found" vegetables :-) I've been snagging dandelion whenever I weed the garden and adding it to my salads. My next challenge is to figure out something to do with all the burdock root that's poppin up everywhere. What an inspiring post!

Also, you should avoid picking veggies from places that might have been sprayed with herbicides like golf courses or the surroundings of a field. So, unfortunately, urban wild veggie foraging is a bit challenging.
