Question: What sort of edible flowers do you eat and what do they taste like!?
Answers:
You can eat marigolds and rose petals!. Some people put them on salads!. My aunt did this and it wasn't bad!. Just be sure to wash them and only use fresh petals!. You can also buy packages of edible flowers from gourmet food stores!. They add a little variety but it's not something I would eat daily! The taste is not bad but not something I would crave or eat all the time! The roses especially, pretty much tasted how they smell, kind of purfumy and soapy tasting!. With the right salad dressing though, it's not too bad!. Marigold had kind of a pine-like taste almost!. Not bad, not great!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
