Not sure, but the first thing I thought of is Hogweed.

Read about it. It's very dangerous to touch Hogweed.

Yes, some similarity but also significant differences, especially leaf shape and the main stem. Also, my wife has been touching it quite a bit, also tasted the leaves, with no problem.

Yes, some similarity. But leaves and main stem are quite different from Hogweed. Also, color of flowers. My wife has touched in a number of times, even sampled the leaves, with no ill effects.

Did you have parsnips there last year? They are biannual and that looks like
one in its' second year about to make seed.
