I think a lot of people just don't know that they are edible.

>>17038507
Because I'm not a poor man.

Most people don't think ahead and are only looking for a root.

I always see this, not necessarily with grass but random plants on the side of the road.

already do with celery but I don't think there's any carrots at my local grocery store that still have their leaves attached to them.

There's plenty of wild plants that can be harvested for food but I'd never do it with stuff growing near roads. If you don't know what it is, don't pick it.

>>17039867

correct!
but op asked why they don't use them.
they don't use them because they are poisonous.
we know they're not, they know they are.
duality of man.

Perhaps its just the variety or the age of the plant, but when I tried carrot leaves they are very bitter. I grow my own carrots and believe me I'd eat them if I could. I do eat the leaves of celery and while somewhat bitter they can be nice in soups and salads.

What the fuck did you just say you little shit? I can cook you in over 9000 ways, I'll have you tasting like a Christmas ham you little fuck!

i don't think you know what the word know means

The carrots I buy don't come with leaves. I'm also pretty positive that a lot of people buy baby carrots instead of whole judging from the amount of recipes I see that use them.
