I'd better type in a whisper, lest my demanding piggies hear that word -
dandelion.

They love them to distraction, so during the winter I buy them from the
local fruit market. But in the warm weather, I collect them from wherever I
can find them. My back yard, the field behind the commuter bus parking lot. 

Just be sure that the area you pick from hasn't been sprayed with
pesticides or is too near the road so they've been inundated with vehicle
exhaust fumes and road grime. 

Try them yourself (if the piggies will let you) - they're a nice addition
to a salad and some people like them steamed like kale or spinach
