RE: EATING GREENBRIAR FOR THE FIRST TIME

in #food7 years ago

That's cool. They call those Saw-briars here.... sept-yuh-gotter say hit like hiss, saw-bra-urs. I would have never thought about eating them, had some pretty nasty run-ins with them when I was a kid, and still have the scars.
I guess I have to try it now, I tried the red-buds a couple months ago and they were actually OK in a salad.
It's almost time for Poke salad and eggs too.
Just my #twocents

Redbuds are a cool one. They sure make a salad look pretty anyway. Thanks for the phonetic lesson there too!

lol, the funny part is most people think it's a joke, but that is how a lot of people talk. I slide in and out of it myself but don't hear it unless it's recorded. I work with a lot of people in PA, NJ, OH and have to watch my language and accents. I started a meeting with "OK folks, lets get started" and no one had a clue what I said, they just stared.
