Nettle eating championships

I can't even touch it! How could someone eat it who is not a duck? I can't believe it does not sting!

I know it's healthy, make tea of it or some cosmetics, but eating... among my worst nightmares.

I know they say nettles are good for you, but it cant be a good idea to eat anything that has a built in defence to prevent it from being eaten surly?

Brave brave men and women. rather them than me..

she said Andy Taylor as judge? Andy Taylor of Mayberry?

I am going to try eating some nettles soon.
As it turns out, nettles are actually quite good for you.

Tried it, it tastes great - and doesn't actually sting much.

IT'S HELD IN DORSET SILLY WOMAN

lmfao me n my mates were stoned as fuk and we thought it would be a good idea to make my mate charlie eat a stinging nettle lol

It's amazing that they can even strip the leaves from the stalks, let alone at them! I tell you, if those are proper stinging nettles then my hands would have swelled up to the point that I can't pick the leaves up before I had the chance to eat any of them.

nettles taste good... no really... they do... :D

They should try that with poison oak.
