@sooby Good eye! It could very well be a species of Sonchus. We have Spiny Sow-thistle (Sonchus asper) that grows here in Florida and another but I can't remember the species. Here's the database listing for Sonchus: http://garden.org/plants/brows...

I've never eaten Sowthistle but apparently it is edible:
