I think we go through this every year, cause I dont know if we have them here. But are they like little onions?
They are in the onion family. They are delicious although they have a very strong odor. Here is a link with some pics of them. the ones in the pics are a little more mature than the ones I picked. The ones I picked had not really broke ground yet but were delicious fried in bacon greese.

Interesting link. Boy I gotta think we got those here. :confused:
I honestly doubt you do and if si not that many. Ramps are a big thing around here. We even have a Ramp festival.

Jim, ramps and festivals honoring them maybe a southern thing but I suspect some of us southern folks just like to have an excuse to throw a rubbin'. :biggrin: One thing for sure when ya' eat a big bait of ramps you will soon find out who your true friends are. :innocentwhistle: :alscalls:
*Southern translation: a rubbin' = a bash, blow out or party where "Hey Bubba.... hold my beer and watch this" is sometimes heard :laf:
If they are like onions, I'm in!. I'll peel an onion for supper and end up eating half of it like an apple. I love em.
I suspect you would like ramps. The next batch I pick I will try to send you a handful to fry up and see what ya think.
I'm in! I got a feeling we have them here, I just dont know it :confused:

Usually they are known as ramps in the south but this vegetable can go by other names such as wild leeks (to non-southerners). :innocentwhistle: :laf:
More than you ever wanted to know about ramps:

"Non Southerners", he says. Did you guys catch that? :huh:

I caught it! Isn't that racial profiling? And where do I get my free Ramps as I'm a non-southerner and want my handout!
