seaweed

it gets gathered up and hauled away.  Where and why, I have no idea.


this area is usually covered in seaweed when high tide comes and goes,  A storm will sometimes deposit the seaweed up on the road.

  1. When I was very young my Dad ate seaweed. If it was good enough for him it is good enough for the rest of the world.

  2. I have always thought it suffocates life in the water, never known you could eat it.

  4. Hello,
    I have heard of Women's spa having a seaweed wrap. I assume it has many uses and benefits. Have a great day!

  10. Sea weed makes good fertiliser. When living near the sea we used to collect it, dry it, and spread it in the garden.

    God bless.

  13. I have heard of seaweed farmers in Japan I believe it was and they harvest it and eat it as you would any crop. They also have longevity among them.

  17. I'm sure the sea weed must have some purpose in the natural world.

  18. I am not sure how it used otherwise but I am pretty sure it's no good on a road.

    I am not a fan of the taste personally.

  23. Wow that sure is a lot of seaweed.

  24. Seaweed is nutritious if it's consumed. It's also used as an ingredient in a number of things and, I think, as a thickener.

  25. Seaweed is one of the foodstuff in japan.
    I heard that Japanese have the digestive enzyme for seaweed.

  29. I bought seaweed in the 70's and used it for various things--mixed in rice, and agar is a thickener similar to gelatin. I've bought liquid seaweed to use as garden fertilizer too. I wonder what is being done with your seaweed?
