@HungryChris -- I am putting hearts of palm on my grocery list. I love the things, and never think to get them. One of my favorite salads is them with early summer peas and asparagus, with a red wine viniagrette and lots of grated Parmigiano. And a sauteed mushroom or two or a dozen.
ETA -- dinner tonight, so far, is an old vine zin, to be joined eventually (read: when I get up) by some cheese, charcuterie and olives.
