I know that some flowers are, in fact, edible. But this is a story of when I was in elementary school and my group of friends saw some flowers over the fence and decided to take some.
They took a bite of the yellow flower and said it tasted sweet and good. Of course, I thought that that was gross.
When they offered one to me I refused several times.
Eventually, peer pressure gave in (sad oof) and I ate one of the flowers. I remember shutting my eyes and swallowing it like a pill. I gagged a lot and threw the remains of the flower over the fence.
Out of all honesty, it wasn't ALL that bad, but looking back at it, I felt so dumb for giving in. My friends never brought it up again and I forgot about it until recently when I saw the same flower grow near my current school.
Here is a picture of what the flower looked like:
