Netherlands here, I have a patch in my garden that I weed continuously from april to september. We eat the shoots. In Japan Thei call it "sansai" and they are quite good. It tastes like artichoke.

"sansai" or 山菜 just means mountain vegetables. It is just a catchall term for any edible plant found in the wilderness.

Thanks for sharing the specific meaning. Anyhow, it is quite tasty! ;)
