In 1917, the eminent archaeologist Zélia Nuttall bought a bunch of uauhtli at the Xochimilco market to send it to William Edwin Safford, a renowned botanist and ethnologist, for identification. Many local writers erroneously referred to this Mexican species, cultivated since time immemorial by the Aztecs, as Chenopodium bonus-henricus. Safford established that he was dealing with an entirely different species which he named in honor of Nuttall! Main crop of Mexicans, this lamb's-quarters produces inflorescences in buds eaten like a vegetable. The ears of flower buds can be prepared in several ways: coated in a batter made of eggs, flour and grated cheese, then fried in melted bacon.
