Cookbook talk:Alfalfa Sprouts

In the first paragraph of the article, this line is the end of one of the sentences: if it dries out or freezes it becomes truly horrible! This sounds too..."slangy". Could someone reword that sentence to make it a bit more like what one would find in a real textbook? Zhaladshar 21:43, 5 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * The first priority should be clarity. The "slangy" wording gets the point across very very well. AlbertCahalan 06:31, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Canavanine
Maybe this article ought to include a warning about alfalfa's canavanine content? This amino acid can get incorporated into body proteins in place of arginine, and alfalfa-induced autoimmune symptoms presumably due to its presence have been recorded on a few occasions.
