Watercress
Has anyone used watercress before. I was thinking of chopping the leaves with cucumber, carrots and baby romaine.
I tasted it and it is slightly bitter but not bad.

Re: Watercress
I have not used watercress. Is there much nutritional value? Should I go out and buy some?

Re: Watercress
I saw something about giving watercress on one of the gouldian sites so I thought I'd try it...if they don't like it I can always make sandwiches with it. Tea anyone?
