Lewis & Clark Trail
The Lewis & Clark Discovery Center has a great exhibit explaining the constant search for food. Hunger forced the Corps to eat some unappetizing plants. The journals are replete with names of edible plants and animals. The index of any edited version has endless entries of plant and animal names. Some entries are scientific. Many are mentioned as food sources. Sacajawea and other Native Americans were essential to edible plant identification.
