I have had them in salads a couple of times - but the husband and the daughter gave them very funny looks, and left them in the serving dish!
They are so good for colour though - there are some plain orange ones in another pot, and a dark red one lurking in one of the troughs with the blue and white things - if I was an American, or straight UK rather than Manx, they would make it very patriotic!
They come up a bit randomly, as I save the seeds from year to year, but I throw them all into a bag together!
