The lesson learned in eradicating dandelions from your yard could
apply in treating breast cancer as well, said researchers from Baylor
College of Medicine.

But it has nothing to do with dandelions, which I miss very much.
They're loaded with vitamins C and K, folic acid; calcium, magnesium,
and iron; phytosterols, pigments, and carotenoids, and the buds and
flowers are as tasty as the leaves and roots. The leaves are bitter
when they're mature (which I like), but not when they're young.

We don't have them down here in southern Florida, but we do have
plenty of other nice "weeds," known only to the cognoscenti. I do eat
them, but I never "eradicate" them! ;-)
