Those of us who are of the baby boomer generation know the song Poke Salad Annie. But have you ever thought about Poke Salad? Did you know you could actually eat poke salad?
You can boil the leaves of pokeweed (like spinach) or mix the leaves with a little onion, bacon, and eggs for a side dish. Hmmm, really? Maybe, maybe not.
If you dare, you could try some in Arab, Alabama, during the "Poke Salat" Festival, May 14-15. Yes, really, you can. You. Me? I don't think so.
Is this a "you poke me, I poke you" type of thing?
