I used to eat pine needles one the walk home in middle school for fun. My friends didn't get it.
Ever eat ants? It freaks people out and they taste like lemons. My friend's kid talked me into doing it. I thought she was just fucking with me and I did it to make her go "ewwwww" but she wasn't lying.

I eat dandelions in the spring too. And fiddleheads. And chaga and morels. Everyone flips out over puffballs but I don't like them that much.
Dandelions are great. Good for your liver. I've tried many times to eat the flower petals, make wine with them, etc., but they're so bitter. We must have a different variety here because I keep hearing how they taste like honey but I don't see it.

All the other stuff you listed doesn't grow here, but I have friends up North who love morels and make chaga tea for their health. I've heard a lot a people say puffballs don't taste like much. Chanterelles are pretty abundant here and are delicious.

And we make pine needle tea and pine needle soda around here. Tastes like Sprite. Very good for you because of high vitamin c

I just batter the flowers and fry them. Make little fritters. My grade 4 teacher was the first person to introduce them to me. She was a hippie and kids were making fun of her for saying dandelions were good for you. I told her I'd try it so she made me some. They're still sort of bitter but it's good.

In grade 4 I had a hippie teacher and she'd get bored sometimes and get an acoustic guitar, maybe a nylon stringed one, and sing a whole set to pass the time. I'm pretty sure she was Irish too so it was interesting to me.
