    yes, fiddle heads are the first thing to grow on a fern plant and you can eat them when still curled into a fiddle. when they unfurl and become leaves they are poisonous ;]

    Fiddle Heads are also delicious lightly steamed; with a bit of butter. I'm sure you buy these but here we go up into the rain forest and pick them. Have never had them pickled but will remedy that shortly. Good post. RJ
