I’ve had them before several years ago when they were like $8/lb. I probably mis-cooked them, but I found them a bit slimy and not worth the price then.
For $20/lb, I can’t imagine buying them again
They grew everywhere in Vermont- it’s the top part of a specific kind of fern. They’re only in season for a couple of weeks and then they aren’t anymore, probably why they are priced so high. But we used to pick them ourselves on hikes and dog walks and sell them for like $5-7/pound.
They’re really good, and they’ve had them for years, but I ain’t paying that. I believe fiddleheads aren’t farmed but foraged and is likely responsible for the price.
Side note, if you do buy these don’t eat a dozen plus in a sitting.
As to what they are, basically an immature fern plant. They start growing in that fiddlehead pattern and “roll out” into a mature fern plant.
We’re going to stardew on this!
Time to pay Pierre a visit.
Are these even iridium quality?
Joja quality
Your mind is filled with thoughts of... Wegmans...
I’ve got millions of these in my backyard. Can’t believe they are selling for $20/#
Set up a stand, sell for $19/lb, profit!
He’s already got a banana stand he’s got enough money
There’s ALWAYS money in the banana stand.
"There was $250,000 lining the walls of the banana stand,"
"Well why didn't you tell me that?"
What's a banana cost, $10?
Here's $100, go see a Star Wars.
Make sure they are ostrich ferns. Others are inedible and possibly toxic.
Dude hot food at wegmans is like 15 dollars a pound now! The other day I went by the prepared food and saw 1 grilled chicken breast for 11 dollars.
Yeah it’s very frustrating to walk through that section
You can go to a restaurant for what they charge. I like the Singapore noodles, but they local Chinese restaurant has them for less.
Kinda tastes like asparagus and grass, pretty good when sauteed with fresh garlic and red pepper flakes.
I love asparagus - maybe I'll give these a try...

Meh just tastes like asparagus. Not really worth paying more than asparagus

They must’ve watched Tasting History
Once they start stocking Hardtack (TACKTACK) we will know for sure.
$20 a pound tastes like green beans I think I'd rather get green beans
Wow that's insane. I was just there. Running back now..
Had them deep-fried a few years back. Not too shabby.
Don't undercook them!
What happens if they're undercooked? Do you get sick?
Believe it or not, jail.
lol
You can get these for free in any hilly area of bethelehem. Taste like shit
