[yec1JF]

[FakeCAnAdiAnBACON]

Damn no wonder you are so skinny! All joking aside you really know a lot of shit.

[JaniceParton]

As a kid living in the country, I always eat blue violets, and the flower from clover, very sweet.

[hlnl56]

Greater Plaintains, dandelions, violets, milk thistles (sow thistles), pine needles, and other yard plants/trees are all edible. Besides that, however, they are also very, very good herbal medicines.

Our family uses plaintains to treat stomach problems.

Dandelions are used to give energy and treats acne.

Milk thistle is used to treat liver pains, etc.

Pine needles are great to chew on when there's no water around and quenches thirst

Violets--also treats stomach pains

Thanks for sharing this!

TRAPPER JACK!!! You my friend are one hell of a guy! I love your videos and the way you go out with almost nothing and still can do what everyone else does with expensive gear! I have to say I admire your ways, I'm curious as hell, where do you live?? If you dont mind sharing that of course

[AskAL1C3]

Are you in Wisconsin? Because all of the plants you named minus a couple are plants I used to eat when I was a kid, growing up there. :-D

[goldenscales]

Its amazing how much edible food is out there, that people probably think are weeds. Way cool brother.

[anttracker]

Hey, where you been? Nice to see another video, take care. Kev

[calmingbrook]

I always figured that those were garlic but being told all my life that they were onions I kept my questions to myself and didn't use them for cooking, thank you for confirming this for me, now I will put them to use

[VexingRandomness]

did he say cow thistle or sal thistle?

[trapperjacksurvival]

@VexingRandomness cow thistle

[trapperjacksurvival]

@VexingRandomness  sow thistle

[branni79]

Great vid jack. Thanx for the wild food info. Its cool to see your wood sorrel over there has yellow leaves. Over here in the uk wood sorrell has white leaves with violet streaks/lines running throught the petals and a yellow/green pollen centre. One of my fave wild foods. Do the ones in your vid taste like apple peel/mild vinegar? The ones here in the uk are high in oxalic acid which is bad for humans so large amounts of wood sorrell are off the menu. Great in cakes, tarts and with ice cream.

[themudball]

Hey wasn't there something that looks just like wild onion, that likes to grow in the same places as wild onion, but it's poisonous? If you could show that in a video it would be great! As it is , me not knowing the diff, I won't be eating the wild onions till somebody clears that up for me. Thanks!

[MiWilderness]

I've yet to find any wild garlic, thanks for sharing. I didn't realize it had cloves just like the storebought stuff.

[trapperjacksurvival]

@MiWilderness yea, i don't buy garlic from the stores i just dig 'em up !

[MrGerbilBrain]

@MiWilderness really? :O cause here its all over, even in our yard!

[JohnMarstonRDD]

What a great channel. Exellent Video! I am guessing these should be only harvested in the wild due to pesticides and chemicals?

[NorthSouthSurvival]

Excellent info! Thanx!

[cyrilturner]

What a great video. This is very educational. Please keep up the great work. I am learning a lot.

[alonewolverine1984]

Thank you very much ! :-)

[Barbarossa4U]

Great vid thanks for all these.

[dlvmark]

Dude great video! First time a video has taught me to identify food. Thanks

[stymiesam]

Good stuff Jack. Thanks

[kirklanddavis]

i though dandelions had yellow flowers not white

[trapperjacksurvival]

@kirklanddavis that was the seed head of the dandylion, the seeds are edible too, i roast them until they pop then grind them up and cook them as an ingredient of other food such as soup or bread.....

[n9hxv1986]

Good to see you Brother, Love your Teaching.

[TribTrekker]

Man, your info is good, and appreciated. I still struggle to successfully obtain my first positive ID of onions and garlic here in southern MI. Maybe this year. --Along with Jewel Weed--

[SteveWaddell1]

Glad to see ya back Jack. Thanks for another informative video. I always look forward to seeing your next videos.

[romeodelta1178]

thanks jack, I learned somthing new!

[ManTheBush]

I was out yesterday to look for wild edibles here in Southern Ontario and there was nothing out yet no onions no garlics no plantains no fiddle-heads no lettuces, It will probably be a week or so before most of our plants up here come up.

Although I did find an Autumn Olive bush with some very old fruit on it.

[bberms21]

[SteveWaddell1]

[RichTheRidgeHunter]

I think you have one of the best channels out here. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Glad to see you doing video's again.

Thanks, Rich

[capmarvelous]

Ever think of selling a dvd with your videos on it, and you can release new versions as you make more videos. I would buy one :)

Its nice seeing them on youtube but if I was out camping and would want to check them out on my laptop it would be cool.

[ShooterReview]

Have a ton of these in my side yard. Always thought they were onions too! Thank you for clarifying! Am I able to "re-plant " the bulb to grow in another part of the yard? Thanks in advance!

[trapperjacksurvival]

@ShooterReview yes they replant well,unlike most other wild plants.

[ShooterReview]

@trapperjacksurvival - Thanks, Jack. Look forward to looking at more of your videos.  Definitely sub'd!

[scavenski]
