Thistle Nuts

This is a good time to gather a few of these very tasty edibles

 
find some well developed thistles and cut them in half to reveal the "nut"
 
 
this is it, the white, triangular portion at the bottom of the flower, it's absolutely lovely and well worth collecting.

    I guess that would correspond to artichoke hearts.

    Yes indeed - exactly the same flower part as an Artichoke Heart.
