Cardoons are thistle-like stalks which come from the Globe Artichoke (at least mine did but there are different varieties of Cardoons). The Cardoon is native to the Mediterranean, where they have been used for thousands of years by the Greeks, Romans and Persians. <br /> <br />To see more photos; http://thelocalmarket.wordpress.com/2012/03/20/cardoons-42/
