Dandelion Herbivore Ceremony

SACRED DANDELION HERBIVORE CEREMONY

As handed down from generation to generation to real Herbivores...

Many of you may already be semi vegetarian or even hard core vegan, ok.

You're ready and most people can become ready by just being open minded,

wishing to get closer to Nature and/or just plain fun loving !


Take a walk out to the front yard, or any pasture with a variety of plants,

(Try to find one that has some Dandelions, Clovers or other good plants)

Get down and take a close look...closer...closer, ok, get down on all fours and

really take a close look, identify everything in sight, focus in on that moist fresh delicious yellow Dandelion ummmm

put your head down to it and open your mouth and tear off a big bite of the lawn

with your teeth !

Chew slowly and well, relax, chill out, breathe, get recentered, but not too internalized.

Be sure to look both ways, just like crossing the street, but instead of cars, look out for

Predators !

Ignore your non-threatening neighbors, but be ready to run if they approach rapidly !

If no one bothers you, continue to chew well and then swallow.

You are now an official honorary member of the Herbivores! ;-)

Ok, next time you can use some vinegarette and crotons ;-)
