My Chickens like them... I have never tried to eat them, or even tasted them... I suppose they might have an interesting flavor. They might work raw in salads?
The animals do love them, and Reb I have tried them in a salad and it does add a very interesting taste to the salad. The only reason I asked is because my wife googled the question and lots of people said it was great but the New York times had an article saying it was toxic in many ways!! I guess they mean if you eat a lot of it in one setting...Like every thing else, one day it's good for you, the next day it's bad for you, and the next it'll cause a heart attack, I guess you could also overdose on water so go figure.... :/
