It's me again. Still hunting for edible weeds :)

I found a patch of these weeds and they look similar to dandelion or Thistle with these fragmented leaf pattern.

Anyone knows what they are?

I have that one here. I can never remember the right name, but its edible. Not their favorite thing, but they eat it.

I think it is called Sisymbrium officinale. Hedge mustard.

@Iochroma can you confirm or deny?

Thanks Tom :)

You're always quick for help, I appreciate that.

I did a quick Google search and the images look similar to the patch I found.

I'll give it a go after it's confirmed, my Egyptians refuse to eat anything except lettuce and jute. So write now I'm collecting seeds of every edible plant I find and by next summer I'll try to wean them off of the lettuce.
