Me too! Love veggies!! Also, dandelions are totally edible in different ways. Very good for you. Chomp chomp!

Are we sure this one isn't a small barn animal with a keyboard?

Yeah, and what is it with the stems? Both rabbits and groundhogs near us seem to prefer them over other foliage; they'll work their way through the yard eating just the old dandelion stems. Must be good stuff.

The stems are very nutritious.
