New Zealand spinach (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetragonia) can, it seems, be grown in the Ottawa area. Who knew? I'd never seen it before. Apparently, according to the vendor, you can cook it and eat the stems (like normal spinach) or pick off the leaves and eat it raw as a salad.
It looks quite different - it has long stems with leaves branching off, like a cross between spinach and ivy.
If you can come over on Tuesday, I can cook it for you. If not - well, someday.

I didn't buy the ostrich meat but I was tempted.
