Yes, oxalis, commonly known as wood sorrel, is edible and has a tart, lemony flavor due to its oxalic acid content. The leaves, flowers, and stems can be consumed raw in salads or as a garnish. However, it’s important to eat it in moderation, as high quantities can lead to stomach upset or other issues due to the oxalic acid. Always ensure proper identification before consuming any wild plants.
