Those are wild corn dogs, aren't they? Tried one once. No amount of mustard made it edible.

Pussy willows taste like chicken.

Hmmm, they don't taste like pu...?


I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

I've eaten the young shoots and they are pretty good. The company at the time may have influenced my opinion..

I've eaten the young spring shoots also, quite good, much like asparagus.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.

The roots are really good - basically a wild potato. During my time on the staff of the AF Survival School, I always appreciated my time in the woods at Cusick. I had my private cattail patches to dig roots and cook them. The heads of the stalks can be ground into a sort of flour and a flat bread made from it. I always found it a bit wanting for taste, but one could survive on it. Here in NE Washington, the camas is the same way - the roots collected and ground for a flour to make bread. Only one problem is that there is a white camas and a blue camas - one is deadly poison, the other tastes pretty darn good. The Indians named the white camas the "death camas", and the only way to tell them apart is when they are flowering. Sorry I got a little long.

Anyone who’s eaten in a Chinese joint has likely eaten not just the tails, but the rest of the cat as well.

Even the Chinese joke about it….

Cat isn't bad, you know. White meat. If you go to Mexico and have street food, just remember that "taco" spelled backwards is "O...cat!"

Dad taught us to light a cattail for lighting fireworks. They would burn long and slow. We called them punks.
