    Also, flat-leaf parsley is the way to go (as opposed to the curly leaf variety) - it has a lot more flavor than the latter which isn't much better than a garnish. The flat-leaf (a.k.a. Italian parsley) is the kind you would find in Tabouli - much stronger flavor.

    And yes, herbs rock be they culinary or otherwise - and you can save a bundle if you grow your own - be they culinary or otherwise.
  • copypastry, on 05/01/2009, -0/+9I can tell that there's no weed on the list because this only has ~250 diggs after an hour and a half.
  • expatcatalyst, on 04/30/2009, -0/+9Despite the foolishness above, great share! Even with the 10 different pages...
  • drstock, on 04/30/2009, -0/+9What about Milf Weed?
  • entropysteak, on 04/30/2009, -0/+9ah, readers digest: providing my grandfather's bathroom with bland reading material every month since 1922.
  • Rain12913, on 04/30/2009, -0/+8Somebody's jealous.

    After getting a Volcano I can assure you that it is ***** awesome. Every single person I've had over to try it agrees. You conserve herb, have better control over your high, and completely remove any health risks or discomfort associated with smoking.
  • SpeedSteamBoat, on 05/01/2009, -0/+7Are you going to the Scarborough Fair?
  • Jondi10, on 04/30/2009, -4/+11I know. How could they leave Ginseng out of that list?!
  • xt0ph3r, on 04/30/2009, -0/+5That'd make for a great YouTube video.
  • MacEnvy, on 05/01/2009, -0/+5Yes. I suggest you stuff your nostrils with tarragon.
  • RUBallsingMe, on 04/30/2009, -2/+7your actually making a serious post on this article?
  • coheedcollapse, on 04/30/2009, -0/+5It's been predictable for a while now unfortunately.
  • Rain12913, on 04/30/2009, -1/+6You're a douchebag. How would you like it if squirrels started leaving tasty food around your house and sniping you out for trying to eat it?
  • windmarble, on 04/30/2009, -0/+4Mary G Wanna, as grandma would put it.
  • mhollerb, on 04/30/2009, -0/+4those are the essentials, not basil
  • jeremymccurdy, on 05/01/2009, -0/+3*****! Thyme is the *****! I should ***** cut you for mentioning rosemary over it! Herbs 'n Spices 4 Life Holmes.
  • ViscidGobs, on 05/01/2009, -0/+3It's not an herb.
  • Wrake, on 05/01/2009, -0/+3I read this as lego-lize. Make it into legos.
  • lostmessiah, on 04/30/2009, -1/+4It's usually best to grow your herbs indoors, in my experience. Plants can get a bit out of control in some cases, choking out the other things you have going on. Worse than that, though, is that they do tend to bring unwanted pests into your garden.

  • Hellahulla, on 05/01/2009, -0/+3No oregano or rosemary?
    That seems like a major oversight.
