I've heard about this eating of tulip bulbs in Holland many times ... wow and thank god for tulip bulbs if they sustained peoples lives. How did your Mom prepare them? Or did she just eat them raw? I wonder what they taste like?

I know that since joining MLU I've come to appreciate tulips in a different way, which I've always loved anyways for their vibrant colours and shapes ... beauty ... but their service to the Dutch hungry people, and their symbolism as a bond between Holland and Canadian Soldiers/Canada is wonderful. I never see "just" beautiful flowers when I see tulips anymore
