B12 in Gracilaria / Limu: "More vitamin B12 than any land plant found on Earth"
http://www.hawaii.edu/reefalgae/publ...limu/index.htm
Two Gracilaria species, limu manauea and ogo (Gracilaria parvisipora) are used interchangeably. Limu manauea is 4"-6" tall, with cylindrical branches dark rose to light pink; ogo is taller (10"-12") with slightly flattened branches. It is illegal to gather reproductive plants (with dark "bumps"). Hawaiian preparation involves lightly salting this limu; this species is also enjoyed by Japanese, Koreans, and Filipinos.Limu are served as vegetables in stews, poke, and salads; as condiments, adding zest to the meals; and are an important source of minerals, and vitamins, including vitamins A, C, B12, and riboflavin.
