this happened to a friend of mine (shawn) and myself many years ago when hog prices were low farmers couldn`t give them away. My brother (ron) who raises hogs came over my house to visit. Shawn and i had gone muchroom hunting but didnt get enough for the meal so we breaded dandelion flowers and cooked them with the mushrooms. My brother seeing what we were doing blurted out " hogs are 6 cents a pound and you guys are eating dandelions ! " We all laugh about this every time it comes up. Dandelions are great cooked this way
