Welcome back to mine and 
Mountain Sorrel is a perennial herb that dies back to the ground in winter. The plants are small, generally only 5-20 centimetres high. It is one of the first plants that children learn to recognize as it's leaves are extremely tasty compared to the other plant life that dots the Nunavut tundra. They have a sweet, yet sour flavor reminiscent of Rhubarb mixed with Raspberries. The smooth green leaves are the desired leaves as they have a more sweet flavor than the more mature red leaves.
People are not the only ones who enjoy munching on the sweet leaves of the Mountain Sorrel. Caribou, Musk Ox, and Geese all enjoy the taste of the Sorrel. Rodents, like the Arctic Hare, Lemming and Voles of the tundra prefer to eat the underground stems known as rhizomes. But for the Inuit of the arctic, Mountain Sorrel was an important food because of its high Vitamin C. The leaves are still eaten raw to this day, and families will often stop at their favorite spot to gather Mountain Sorrel so the children have a sweet snack. It was also used medicinally to treat stomach aches or a lack of energy.
When collecting in the wild, it's best to watch out for these guys though. Their poop makes the sorrel grow really well, but it also can end up all over the sorrel. Eat at your own risk.
