Also we planted oats.  They are one grain that the seeds are
easy to eat off the stem green and growing.    We also ate
the tender pith tip of many grasses.  pull on the stem and
you get the top section of the grass stem with a very tender
half inch where it came apart.

I do not care for oatmeal mush-  but in Germany it is eaten
as a dessert pudding in some places.   With jam.
