I've been thinking about collecting dandelion sap (y'know, the white stuff inside the stem) for a while, but I can't find anything about how to collect it because duckduckgo only shows unrelated results.

There sure are a lot of absurd pseudoscientific claims on that site. Dandelions are great to eat, but they're not miracle drugs like this woman is trying to sell you on

Thanks, but it didn't say anything about collecting the sap. :(
