so i was watching bizarre foods yesterday, the show hosted by Andrew Zimmerman. i really enjoy his show. well this particular episode he was visiting the Appalachian mountains. for part of it, he was hanging with a man who picked wild mushrooms to eat. not the hallucinogenic kind. it was pretty cool. there were several different types, a sweet one, some that were huge and tasted kinda like steak, one that looked like wood that they ground up and made a sort of coffee. etc.
so i was wondering, is there anyone here who does that sort of thing? not only mushrooms, but I've heard before that you can find asparagus growing wild. does anyone eat poke salad? or any other wild growing foods? I'm curious about this sort of stuff. my grandmother has always told me about poke salad, and boiling it like cabbage.
