    Cottontail Rabbits eat dandelions all the time. Just another attempt by Berkeley to make funny ā€¦ that failed.

    Dandelions, higher in vitamin content than most other bitter greens and tasty too!

    Ah, dandelions! (We also grew up knowing their alternate names of ā€œpee your bedā€) As long as you cut the central spines out of the leaves and only use the newest and freshest leaves tehy are great as part of a mixed salad or you can wilt them in to curries etc a la saag dishes.

    Traditionally dandelion heads for use in making dandelion wine should be picked on Saint Georgeā€™s day for best results.

    Also dandelion milk has been utilised as an ersatz rubber latex, and according to my old granny a long long time ago you can also use them in the seed stage for telling the time back in the days before you could buy a quartz wristwatch for the price of a pork pie, when the ludicrous inaccuracy of the process was perhaps a teensy bit less obvious!

    More proof of your unhinged dementia.

    The Tea Party didnā€™t exist back when this strip was first published but that doesnā€™t matter to you, does it? Any excuse to throw out more of your wackadoo nonsenseā€¦.

    You just never stop with the hate, do you? Please, please, PLEASE get back on your meds.

    Back in the 60ā€™s the Stones had a whimsical song called ā€œDandelionā€ that was mistakenly assumed to be drug related. The number of college students smoking dandelions would be too long to list.

    And let go of the Tea Party comments-you liberals are obsessed with it; as shown by the IRS scandal. I would say you owe us a big apology.

    Granny Clampett was the only one I ever heard talk about eating dandelion greens.

    Dandelions are metaphors for life. Eat them and it gets strange. But what a life it is.
