      Yup. This happens whenever you eat a starch to which your body is not accustomed. Eat it a few times (perhaps when you have no social plans), and the gas will diminish over time. This is true of burdock, sunchokes, beans and most other starches.

      It’s not vegan because vegans avoid causing harm to animals as much as practicable, bees are animals, some bees are killed during honey harvesting and some cruel tactics are used in commercial bee keeping. Since you don’t need honey to live and can practicably avoid it, it’s not vegan

      This recipe is a dandelion flavored sugar syrup. As far as I understand, excessive consumption of any form of sugar is unhealthy, even bee-made honey. Personally I'd consider this better than eating straight sugar but not better than abstaining from sugar, if that helps...

    I have a few of these growing in the back of my in law’s property. I was planning to collect seeds once they’re ready/easy to pull out of the flower to make a tincture. Would the “hearts” be edible/good at this stage, or do the flowers need to be barely open? Maybe I’ll plant a perimeter of these around my chicken run once I build that so I have plenty of “artichoke” that also serves as a barrier between predators and my hens…

    All you really made was a simple syrup. Honey is an absolute misnomer here, as honey is made by bees, not with cane sugar. If it were truly vegan, they'd try to make it taste like meat. We are omnivorous, hence incisors and canines , not all molars.

    Yeah that's a good idea but whether you can taste it or not the smoke it's going to affect the flavor in boiling process of the syrup even if it tastes like it's really good syrup that smoke doesn't evaporate and does get boiled into the syrup a little bit what's the weather people believe it or not so it would be better to try to have a boiling system for the smoke doesn't doesn't have contact with the top of the syrup that you're boiling because I guarantee that smoke is hitting the top of that boiling syrup share list which can possibly it's not done boiled down syrup and cause it to have a smoky flavor if not careful
