My grandparents did this up to the 80's. We would be driving, suddenly my nana would tap my tata and say, "Pull over. Italian dandelions!" Then I knew what dinner was that night!❤
My Sicilian grandparents could be found up until the 1980s parked by the side of the road digging up our salad for the evening meal-dandelions. The best were the ones pulled up before the flowers fully opened. Oh how I loved those salads with my grandmothers thick Sicilian Olive Oil and lemon juice. They eventually had to stop when the road crews started spraying the "weeds" with weed killer. My mouth still waters for those delicious meals my nonna made that were once considered the food of the peasants. Now you pay exorbitant prices for the same food in upscale restaurants but they will never match the love and wonderful taste of my nonna's. Memories ❤
