Hi, Seaweed can be eaten like a vegetable. A Japanese friend loved it.
I tried a piece but it was like dried salty spinach.

Wasn't too tasty in my estimation.

Cheers,

Long search has found nothing, but I just wonder if this was someone who
prepared seaweed for the making of lava bread. Did they make this in West
Yorkshire? I have the feeling that I have heard of this somewhere.
