Ha, I was once accused of being a Bad Mommy because of that! When my daughter was about 4, we moved to some acreage and I started taking her out with me each evening to forage greens for our salad. Some plants were in my garden, some grew wild. She learned the names and tastes of all of them.
I got a call one day from a schoolmate's furious mother — she'd conscientiously taught her little girl NEVER to eat plants outdoors. Apparently, when the girl was visiting, my daughter had shown her all the outdoor plants that were good to eat.
