[QUOTE="Rafter S, post: 1445991, member: 21194"] I've always been told that the really poor folks in my part of the country used to eat pokeweed (they called it poke salad), but it had to be boiled several times (I think that was the process) to remove the poison, so I assume it's poisonous to cattle too. I don't know about pigweed. I know hogs love it, so I kind of doubt it would hurt cows. I even seem to remember a Jersey milk cow that liked it, but that was 40 or more years ago so I'm not sure.
