        Well you see, my neighbour has geese. I read somewhere they love dandelion leaves, so I’d bring them a handful whenever I was walking the dog. They are now so friendly I can pat them on the head

        My wife said one day that every time she walks the dog and passes the geese, they start honking like mad and run up to the fence

        Turns out the geese think it’s the dog that’s bringing the dandelion leaves

        😂

      Which bit of the dandelion? The flower?

        The leaves. They’re actually quite tasty, like peppery lettuce, but they make you pee a lot. The french call them pissenlit, or “Pee the bed”

          You can also force them with a bucket and they taste sweeter (supposedly). But if we’re feeding them to the geese then I’ll stick to making wine from the flowers
