Hi! Yes, we have eaten a few in salad and also made a tea with the leaves which gave dopamine support and was good. They taste alot like spinach. Don't eat too many at a time because you will throw your meds off. As with the bean, go slowly and build up gradually til you find the right amount for balancing with your meds. Have you had the G6pd test yet? (you may have told me and I have forgotten. ) Before you eat any of the plant or beans, please check to make sure you don't have favism (an enzyme deficiency which causes the blood cells to "self-destruct " and can bring on an emergency situation. Look up favism on the web and research well/ take a blood test! I've had mine.
