| Notes: | Label source: The chicory and the endive (C.endivia) have been cultivated for over 1000 years but are still little different from their wild ancestor. The blanched leaves of both species are eaten as salads; those of the latter are also cooked. The roots, of certain varieties of chicory are ground, to be blanched as a flavouring or adulterant of coffee. | ||||
