1. The roots of it are edible. I don't remember what season or what part of it is, so I wouldn't suggest eating it.
2. It's a great fire starter. All you do is take a small part of it off the top of the plant and lay it on the ground. If you have flint it will catch fire really easy. If you have a lighter, even with the spark it will catch fire.
3. It's a great stuffing for your clothes. It seems to expand when you pull it out of the top. It keeps you warm it you are stranded outside.
