Per chance after soaking the many spring lettuces from our garden I decided to try to husk one of the maple seeds that was floating in the rinse water. I noticed that it looked just like a pumpkin seed only greaner. I decided to pop it into my mouth just for the heck of it to see how it would taste, it was not bitter, but did remind me of the pumpkin seed in many ways. Since it is just one I don't think there will be any ill effects, but if so, then I'm ready to go and will not be able to read the responses I so hope for. Does anyone know of any culture that does eat this seed. We have them in abundance each spring. There are many to grow, but how about some to eat???

I sure would like to hear from anyone who may know the science of this, nutrition wise.

Sincerely, hope to check back with you. If not then I think it would be wise not to pop even one into your mouth. --Heboju (talk) 18:40, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
