Knotweed
" I've seen articles saying the young 8 inch shoots are edible and
delicious,
like Rhubarb but better, --

During the war, we as kids, would play in the jungle of Knotweed and often
chew the stems - as you say like rhubarb but quite sharp. They would be
thirst quenching. as kids we'd try anything.
I can't say how the stems would be used in the kitchen though.
