Henry Ford: Weeds
亨利·福特:草

It must be a lot easier to amass great fortune if your food bill is minuscule, and they don't come much thriftier than Henry Ford, the original hipster, who mostly ate foraged weeds and shrubs.
如果你食物花销极小,要积聚大量财富一定轻松得多。在这方面,没有人比亨利·福特更节俭了,这位个性潮人主要吃草料和灌木叶。

"Lunch consisted of what Henry blithely called 'roadside greens.' These were simply assorted weeds, variously prepared as salads, or lightly-oiled, or even stewed – and often appearing in sandwiches," wrote Sidney Olson in his 1963 biography Young Henry Ford: A Picture History of the First Forty Years.
西德尼·奥尔森在1963年发表的《青年亨利·福特传:图说福特的前四十年》中写道:“亨利的午餐由各式各样的的野草组成,他却戏称它们为‘路边蔬菜’,这些野草可以用来制作沙拉,或者用少许油翻炒,甚至还可以炖。还经常被用来制作三明治。”

"There is nothing quite like a dish of stewed burdock, followed by a sandwich of soy bean bread filled with milk-weeds, to set a man up for an afternoon's work."
他说:“没有什么比一盘红烧牛蒡加上一个黄豆面包片和乳草属植物做成的三明治更美味的了,这可以让人提起精神干完整个下午的工作。”

Delicious.
太美味了。
