brought in to the usa south?during the twenties to control soil

erosion, it soon became a curse.? live stock can feed on it and it is

supposely high in protein, and so i had always wondered why humans had

not tried it. my mom had told me? during the depression some had eaten

it cooked much like stewed collards (gag!) and turnips or cabbage.

might be worth a try.....
