So when I first saw the part of the plant that you see in the photo above, I had NO CLUE what it was. I thought it was some kind of funky gooseberry or who knows what. So tell me, do you know what it is?
It’a a vegetable — a flowering perennial plant. Part of this plant is succulent and tender, and has been considered a delicacy since ancient times. You can grill it, roast it, steam it, even bake it on a pizza!
Oh, and the discovery channel says it makes your pee stink. Dead giveaway now, right?
If you guessed asparagus, you would be correct.
