Sorrel is edible, and very nice to eat. Look up French sorrel soup - its an unfashionable and ugly gem of a soup. The tangy lemony taste is unique imo. Marvellous with crusty bread. Otherwise, just pretend it's spinach and cook/eat accordingly but with lots of cream and/or melty cheese.

Yeah I know. It’s a common feature in my ‘weed’ pie. There’s only so much I can eat., and this is one that gets ignored if I it put out the free food box

I used to eat oxalis as a kid. For some reason I thought it was the sorrel mentioned in the Hobbit.

...ok it is a sorrel. I wonder how I knew that
