Comment on don't eat wild carrot

Is there something I’m supposed to be doing with Queen Anne’s Lace? It gets more out of control every year, but I just rip it out and compost it.

As long as you’re sure it’s Queen Anne’s Lace (hairy stem, flowers with red dot), rip it up and use it. They’re much tougher than normal carrots, but still taste great and make a lovely vegetable stock. My dogs go NUTS for them as treats. There’s a bunch of tutorials online for how to use them.
Note: You won’t be able to get rid of them without weed killer, because their seeds turn into little burrs that cling to animals… but the plant is tasty, so why waste it?
