Wild Radish
This purple-flowered plant may be cute, but it should be chewed to death like the rest of the invasive species on this list. Wild radish usually takes over grasslands and is occasionally found growing alongside the road in states out west, including California. Like other invasive greenery, it takes up space and pushes out plants that are native to the United States. This plant grows edible pods.
Here’s a recipe for pickling that part of the wild radish. Mix, put it in your fridge, and have it for an afternoon snack.
