Hi! Any idea on what those are? I found them in my raised bed while preparing it for the spring season. They look like little onions but have the texture of potatoes.

I live in Georgia, USA.

Lol yeah. There's a German saying "was der Bauer nicht kennt, isst er nicht", that is, "what the farmer doesn't know, he won't eat".

Usually said as a phase to excuse picky eating but it does, in broader terms, have some wisdom behind it.

I certainly won't eat it.

That’s right up there with “Periods of starvation are when we discovered all the world’s great foods.”

I mean really, who was the first person to try cheese?
