    My family came from Skye and I recall as a child gathering seaweed (dulse) on the shore, you could nibble it but it was better prepared.It could also get boring. I note in this excellent book the references yet the focus is on Asia and Australia. The written history of collecting and using seaweed, by no means just for eating, goes back in Scotland to the 7th century. These plants have longevity!
