Because I so like this plant, I want to offer this link. It's for the "weed" called by many names. Lambsquarters, Goose Foot, Pig Weed, and I forget what others I've seen. If you see it growing around you, give it a try. Maybe, like Funky Rob, myself, and I'm sure a few others, you'll become a fan.

I don't know where in the US it grows but it grows plentiful in the garden here where I live in South Korea.

I clicked the link to oxalic acid (which includes information about oxalates). My understanding is that the oxalic acid's binding properties are only activated after being subjected to heat. But this is the first I've ever read about oxalates. Variation, I suppose, is the answer.

I am unsure about the nitrate thing. I clicked the link to nitrates and am confused. The last line sums up the author's thoughts, but, I'm still unsure. I don't think I will eat less. I haven't been eating it in huge quantities, nor every day but do enjoy a good amount of it.
