Can Hog weed seeds be dried and milled into flower?

Does the flower produce gluten, and would it be edible after baking. Hog weed grows, so well that if it was useful as a food it could feed the masses. Does any one know the answers?

The United States Department of Agriculture has research on uses of just about every plant. Write to them. They could tell you vitamins found in various parts of the plant, percentages of proteins, etc. etc. Be sure you send them the species name (Heracleum mantegazzianum?) of the particular plant you are interested in. If it is plentiful enough, it might be good for alcohol fuel production.

But I wouldn't hold out much hope for it. It sounds like some pretty nasty stuff (see source).

Reply:Gluten is a protein only found in wheat, rye and barley. SO if hog weed seeds are of those varieties then yes they could contain gluten.
Reply:Hogweed is very poisonous. The white latex liquid from its pith will cause cancer and severe skin complaints if contacted, especially in direct sunlight.
