Guest guest Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Poke salad is classified as an herb. It must be cooked (to neutralize toxins) before eating. Traditionally in the south it is boiled and served the same way as you would turnip greens, mustard greens, or spinach. http://www.pokesaladfestival.com/plant.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pokeweed http://www.jacksonfreepress.com/comments.php?id=6313_0_8_0_C Pat _____ On Behalf Of Donnalilacflower Sunday, March 25, 2007 4:11 PM Re: Poke salat Rachel LOL Now that song Poke Salad Annie Rachel look at the lyrics are they talking about okra? hahahahahahaha I always thought it was pork.
