I don't know how many of you live near pine trees, but have you ever eaten the needles?
I don't like normal ones (Taste like mint), but we have Short Pines down here and they taste just like oranges with like 2X more vitamin C.
Downside, they can make your mouth taste all citricy for like a whole day... People get so freaked out when I'm chewing one of them...lol.
Wait... You can EAT them!?
Never heard that before. I will have to try that sometime.

only one way to find out ;)
I've never tried eating them.
And yeah, we're surrounded by pines.
That's, uh, weird. >_>
I like grass better.
I should try that, I hope you're not playing some sick joke on us...
You eat pine needles... ._. Do they smell like pine scented air freshener?

Oranges or Mint.
Depends on the type of tree.
And you dont eat them, they are stringy.
Just an interesting little fact I wanted to share.
You chew on them.
