I wonder, whenever I boil them, who figured out how to eat artichokes in the first place. My best guess is that it was an accident----somone threw the thing into a boiling pot while no one else was looking.

Artichokes? That's nothing. Please look into the delicacies enjoyed in Asia, such a a rotting egg/cabage/etc. UNBELIEVABLE what people can eat.

I would like to know the first human who cracked open an egg and said, "Hey, that looks delicious."

I've never tried a baby artichoke raw, but so far this year have had three different restaurants serve wood roasted baby artichokes, and they are delicious, stem and all! I had one marinated and two without, and I liked the unmarinated ones better.
