If you saw the meatloaf I did, you'd eat weeds, too.  E-mail

ImageOkay, I admit it, I'm stretching from the Ecogeek mission of being gadget-friendly to help you all reconnect with the Earth by well ... eating it. 
 
Weed 'Em and Reap is the punnily-named offering from Roger Welsch that serves as an introduction to food you can eat right out of the ground.
 
You'll learn about morels, cattails, and smut-fungus (ed: yikes), and also how to make wines, jams, and jellies. 
 
As I've mentioned, I'm in upstate New York dining on camp fare for my three squares a day, and I'm glad to have an arsenal of ideas if I head to the dining hall and see "Leftover Night!" scrawled on the small green chalkboard. Especially the dandelion wine, which sounds like the perfect drink at the end of a long summer day.
