‘Seaweed’ at your local Chinese restaurant is actually cabbage as a rule…

As for replacing wheat,oats and spuds,well we’d better grow rice or invent something new. :lol: We’ve eaten bread for millennia around the world

A Welsh neighbour always asked me to bring back seaweed if I was possibly able to,when I was sea fishing ,so she could make Laverbread. She loved it. She told me years ago her grandmother said it was very much a poverty food.
I didn’t like it if I am truthful,but Gwen said it took her back to being a child! Lovely.
