Also today a chinese friend showed me a delicious way to cook fava plant leaves 😯 I never knew they tasted so good. Usually we feed them to the goats

@DrWatson I have had those. They are awesome

@SnickersDOM it is certainly not their native plant but they are one of the largest producers of the crops!!

@Miram ah so I see as the greens mature, the vitamins move into the beans instead, so you could just eat both together I suppose (I like to eat diced turnips with turnip greens for example)

I wonder which microgreens do not have a corollary (edible) plant part you can eat (roots, stems, flowers, seeds) to get the vitamins once the greens mature

I'll never understand the whole eat-plant-x-for-mineral-y proposition though, it would seem like it would depend entirely on what region the plant is grown in, and what the soil composition is there, as to what nutrients you could expect

@SnickersDOM There are many that can be toxic or too woody to eat

@WolfGirlwh0r3 I don't eat filth :)
