Have you guys ever eaten ramps? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Blair85 · 04-27-2003, 12:42 AM

Well...have ya?! Or are you wondering what the heck I'm talking about? Ok so my town has a "festival" and they serve these things called ramps. They are some kind of plant that grows wild in the woods. The festival was today and they have a craft show & serve ramps...Let me tell ya that these things STINK! I really don't know how people can eat them because they smell like something dead & the smell of these things make me sick & make me feel like I'm going to pass out. I've never eaten them before, but some people love them & some people say they burn their mouths & everythin else. Ramps even make your breath stink for days! I just don't see why people eat the things.

Me neither. But then again, there are loads of foods that Americans supposedly eat all the time which I have never heard of.

I remember in the story Rapunzel that her parents had a big craving for rampion salad, so I think that's what this is. Rapunzel's name actually came from rampion, somehow...

Maybe Ramps are hallucinagenic like psylisybin mushrooms or peyote buttons? Those things will make you gag but people eat them anyway. I don't think they sell crafts at the same time though. Your town provides a lot of entertainment to the outside world, lol.

Never heard of the things, and I'll definitely keep my distance from them if they're that horrid.
