Wild Plant Eating in Ukraine

[ImHash]

I'm more interested to eat you sugar even though I'm no les but I'm willing to spend a night with you because I just adored you with the way you chat/talk, how's that for being wild while I will eat you and your delicious veg soup?
Ugh! those cows are eating the grass which humans usually don't eat and just wtf about those rats? are they really feed and grow them fat in order to then eat them? I want to know why would anyone even live in such a way? isn't death sweeter than having to eat rats? what kind of a standards do they have for living? common those are f*cking RATS, look at their eyes poor things are happy eating and being fat et al.

Here we either eat vegetables and baby cows and sheep meat/ chicken a lot of chicken/ gourmet my mother cooks the most delicious gourmet with best parts of sheep's meat, sometimes wild hunt meat and birds but never rats.

Of course they're food!  They are no doubt healthy because they are so fresh.  I used to pick fiddleheads with my grandfather in the spring.  We would also go looking for wild asparagus and giant puffball mushrooms.  The puffballs were my favourite because we would slice them and fry them in butter.  If you were lucky enough to catch a spring smelt run as well, you were in for a gourmet meal!

I've never tried fiddleheads but they grow nearby. I have to pick some and try it out as a side dish.

What I did try is dock. My mom used to make a tasty soup with its leaves.


I also loved cakes with rheum. You should try it, tastes a bit like lemon.

What you are there Italians! You post such nonsense can only Russian. When you laugh with the fact that Ukrainians eat grass think about how what you cook Russian cabbage soup. You sorrel, onions, dill, Basil, etc. don't eat?

Why is Ukraine eating grass ?..

Because they had a leader like jeremy corbyn in power ..
So the UK you think before you vote..

Petro Poroshenko is just opposite to what Jeremy Corbyn is. The former is a neo-nazi, while the latter is a extreme-left militant. Also, Poroshenko is a millionaire, while Corbyn's net worth is in negative.

Looks like horseradish. I've never tried the leaves although I heard they are edible, but the root has a punch.
Nothing better to clear your sinuses, it's like a tear gas  
I don't eat many greens, but I don't mind eating spinach from time to time, and chives of course. Most people like chives.

 I've never tried dock but we had some rhubarb (rheum) growing in the yard which we used exclusively for cakes and pies (not the yard BADecker but the rhubarb).  Rhubarb pie is delicious.

It's not going to be much of a safe thing to do just eating wild plants that you don't know. It's better to be safe than sorry. Buy vegetables that are safe and maybe from the supermarket or something.

 Then I guess we should note that Rhubarb leaves are poisonous and should not be eaten.  Eating large amounts of raw or cooked leaves causes difficulty breathing, burning of mouth and throat. Symptoms set in within an hour of eating the leaves and lead to convulsions, internal bleeding, coma, and death.

 Many people eat cherries and potatoes from the supermarket but they don't realize that cherry pips are poisonous as are potatoes when they begin to turn green.

Not that photo specifically, I’m not sure what that plant is; nor have I ever seen it growing in the wild near me. I was more specifically talking about dandelions (which I usually make a dip with) and leeks (which I usually use in stew).


*Edit: Unless of course that photo is burdock. That almost resembles burdock (which I have picked/harvested before), but I can’t tell for sure.

I don't recognize any of these plants since I don't live in Europe. So long as the plants are cleaned and properly, there should be no problem eating those you pick in the wild. These probably wouldn't have pesticides on them if those are from pasture for feeding cattle or from the woods.

Picking wild plants isn't exactly a thing here in my country (those in the countryside tend to have vegetable gardens anyway). I did manage to try fiddleheads before and as far as I know those are not grown in gardens so they were probably found wild.

Just hoping you pickers stay safe. I heard some edible wild plants have rather poisonous lookalikes.

Most wild plants are easy to tell apart and there is really no risk to picking and eating them (you could probably safely tell them apart after looking at a sketch, but I'd reccomend looking into it before you eat anything). Mushrooms are a different story, however, and I would never recommend trying to pick mushrooms that you think are an edible type.

I remember seeing a vid from Great Big Story about a mushroom picker in California that almost died when she picked up the wrong one. Yeah, mushrooms can be quite dangerous if you misidentify them. No wonder even mushroom farms heat treat their growing medium first before planting on them. I suppose aside from preventing molds from growing, that would reduce the chance of an evil lookalike sprouting in the same mix.

If I am left in the wild, I probably wouldn't be able to live of the land, we don't have a picker culture here. Guess I would be mostly looking for the nearest friendly coconut tree.

I also tried them and I can say that they are quite edible. Of course, you can not eat one grass, but you can eat for a change.

 Not only are they edible, they are delicious and nutritious.  There is no comparison to grass other than the green colour.

Oh how I would like to be able to do this as well! We don't know much about wild plants though, I've always lived in the city. Dunno bout the countryfolks. It would probably be cool to just go out in to the woods and come back home with a basket of nutritious greens for the family.

It definitely is a skill worth having. With all these talks about global instability and war, this could make the difference in survival in the event of a collapse. Now that I've thought about it, I should really brush up on edibles and maybe go places and start scattering seeds like crazy.

You are what you eat. This is why the new Russian KGB (or whatever they call it) has all those wild, agent plants all over the world.

Such plants will very much help to survive in case of collapse, but it is necessary to understand which of them are edible, and which are poisonous.

In modern Russia it is called FSB. They are like an octopus has its tentacles scattered worldwide. On any forum there are Russian trolls in Newspapers on television. Every day we boned hundreds of fakes and it is very often impossible to distinguish fakes from reality.

Yes, I tried some kinds and they are really delicious. You can not even say that this is some kind of inedible grass.
