I learned about this plant last year and spent a couple of months looking for it. Once I finally found some, I started finding it growing nearly everywhere.
I've read from several sources that this is a healthy food if you eat the leaves or seeds. Nutiritionally it is supposedly very close to spinach. Apparently it sucks nitrates from the soil and so plants found growing in or adjacent to agricultural fields shouldn't be eaten.
I haven't eaten any yet but I think I'm gonna give it a try here in the next couple of weeks. Anybody here ever eat it?
I guess some people call it "goosefoot".
