If
you're not familiar with burdock root, it could strike you as an odd
looking vegetable. I remember back when I was in NY, I once bought
some burdock in Chinatown. On the bus ride home, the long, skinny
roots popping out of my shopping bag grabbed a lot of attention. The
woman behind me probably couldn't resist her curiosity; she finally
asked me what exactly those roots were and what I was going to do
with them.
