Please do not try this at home, folks. A VERY, VERY, VERY young artichoke
maybe, but the fuzz in the center of the artichoke is needle sharp and can
literally 'choke' you to death if swallowed. The preojectiles also can, and
do, stick into your tongue, roof of your mouth  and cheeks breaking off their
tips and causing excruciating pain.

Eating choke fuzz is one of those things that you must be experienced in
determining when the safety factor is surpasssed or have someone who knows
what they're doing teach you the proper age of the artichoke.
