The first weed is called calalloo in Jamaica. It more like spinach, delicious with cod fish or sautéed with peppers and onions❤️
-
My people (Cambodians) have eaten amaranth and purslane for centuries. Delicious vegetables. Very nutritious. 🙂
-
No. 1 plant is eaten n sold in the market here in Northeast India. They are rich in Iron. With love from SAM Guwahati, Assam, India 🇮🇳 ♥️

It's funny seeing you call purslane and amaranth weeds. I have both of those plants but growing in beds and pots. I eat them weekly. 🥰 You're blessed to have them growing as a weed.
-
I wish there were more Australians doing these shows. It’s necessary to learn about your local ‘weeds’ ❤

Hi I'm from Trinidad and just to let you know the first plant you pulled out we call it spinach in my country. And we cultivate it grow it and sell it as a spinach vegetable. So what y different countries know as wild is not. I am so glad to see your channel. It's educational. Thanks.

Purslane. My grandma cooks it with pork, cilantro, tomatillos, jalapeño, Mexican oregano, onion & garlic. I forget what she calls it, but I've eaten it that way, since I was a kid.

Thank you for your knowledge and recommended books. My mother tried introducing these “weeds” to us when we were little. She was a Latvian farm girl before the war drove her from her home. She brought her wise gardening techniques with her and passed some wisdom on to us….watching your channel just reinforces what she was all about!

We all cooked and eat that stuff you showed in the video!! I’m Turkish,Some we make salad some we cook ….I love green stuff very healthy
-
The first weed that you plucked is a vegetable we call calaloo here in Jamaica very delicious
-
You´re awesome! I love your connection to nature, animals, plants, bees. You have great respect for all life. Thank you.

Purslane is also known here in South Texas as Portulaca. Grows wild in the cracks of sidewalks, is sold in hanging baskets, etc. There are organic seed packets online for cheap, too. Flowers are edible, as well. Since it's a succulent, make sure it's in clean soils. It's kinda like a tastier version of nopalitos (cactus) & off the charts in Omegas.

All the weeds you share in this video are widely used in Asia as green vegetables, and we eat them daily. We boil them and dip in the fish sauce or make the vegetable soup.
-
I have been eating Pursaline for over sixty five years. Thanks to my Father..RIP.
-
I used to eat clover leaves often when I was a kid, because I loved the flavor! To me, they tasted just a little bit lemony kinda, just a really nice mild tangy flavor. Good to know they were safe to eat, lol!

Purslane is packed with omega 3 and is a great food for chickens. Dandelions are 100% edible plus they help prevent soil erosion, help aerate the soil while pulling essential minerals up to the surface to feed other plants.
-
the first "weed" you mentioned and showed is to us here in Suriname a nutritious vegetable we call "Klaroen" You just need to harvest the tops and cook them. It will grow more luscious afterwards. Yes, you have the green and the red one.
-
Purslane is very common in Iraq, we buy it … yes sadly we can’t find it growing wildly. It’s either cooked as a stew with meat and served with rice or is washed and chopped then blanched then add chopped onions, cucumbers and some garlic to plain yogurt and season with salt, it is the most refreshing summer salad, make it when you are having a barbecue 🍖 it is yummy 🤤.

The first plant is called bhaji or spinach in my country, Trinidad and Tobago...you can also cook young Peppers leave, young pumpkin leave and flowers, young cassava leave.
