Kinda because I can, kinda for the hell of it, kinda because people used to do that and these plants are resilient and I like the idea to have fresh edible stuff around then the zombie apocalypse breaks loose.
Bonus: Also this kinda feels like dungeon meshi but with real foods lol
Flying potatoes. Yay.
Oh this one on the pic isn’t mine. It was silly to not post mine, but I didn’t had it with me when I decided to post.
Mine doesn’t smells pineappley. Also doesn’t smell like fish, which some places said it tasted like. Doesn’t taste like fish either (I tasted a tiny bit, raw).
I’ll try the app. It’s funny that I bought it from a plant nursery, BUT they also had another plant, really similar but had a striking floral scent when you crushed the leaves (like lavender), and when I went to look up the name she gave me I found a whole set of different plant that had nothing to do with that one.
Anyway. I’m probably gonna dunk in batter then fry out when it grows enough leaves… if it’s the right plant (an unconventional edible produce called “peixinho da horta”).
I already got myself “flying potatoes” (another PANC, “cará do ar”) and I hope I can eat them in the same meal, that would be cool af.

Probably fungus could end up feasting on them like they are moving piles of organic material.
Username checks out - dandelion is also a PANC lol! Never tried it, thought. But it’s on my list, I haven’t crossed a dandelion for a while, I’ll get some seeds when I have the chance.
That’s an useful information you have. It does have a really high fiber content and is low in calories indeed. According to embrapa it have a decent amount of iron, potassium and calcium… as a fatty, may not be the worse idea (gonna have to ditch the batter fry, though. Dammit.)
I’ll look up these others you said, if they are as tasty as they are pretty, then it’s a deal!
No acorns around here, unfortunately. I’m in Brazil’s capital. There are several fruit trees scattered around the town (including an whole avenue of mangoes and another of jackfruit), but fruits are seasonal and don’t make proper meals.
