Don't you have to boil them to get the poison slime off?
Thought I saw that on Survivor Man or Man vs. Wild.
I think it is the bugs and microbes you have to boil it for. I dont think they are poisonous.
I'll just stick with my Broccoli and other greens. I had some really good Broccoli-Cheese Soup last week. Would have gone really well with a Grilled Head Cheese Sandwich. Oh well...
