Eating wild vegetables follows four principles.
1. Don't pick wild vegetables everywhere. Many people will choose to pick wild vegetables in the wild, but we must pay attention to the location of picking, preferably in farmland. Don't go to parks, roadsides and fields with unknown soil characteristics, because wild vegetables in these places may be polluted by harmful substances such as pesticides or heavy metals in the soil. 2. Don't pick unfamiliar wild vegetables. Many wild vegetables are similar in appearance, but their efficacy may vary greatly, and some of them are still toxic. Therefore, if you are not familiar with wild vegetables, don't pick and eat them rashly. Be sure to confirm whether the picked wild vegetables are edible to your elders or friends who are familiar with them. Do not eat too much. Our food has been screened for thousands of years, and the best ones are basically what we often eat. If you don't eat it often, you will definitely have some problems. For example, most wild vegetables are bitter and cold, which is easy to damage the spleen and stomach. 4. Be sure to clean it before eating. Because the growing environment of wild vegetables is not easy to grasp, it must be cleaned before eating. Wild vegetables can be soaked in clear water or light salt water for not less than 1 hour.
