To weigh the suckers down so they don't try to float. Poor rock's turned green over the years. :D

The tip of the leaf is the "meat". The first couple layers of leaves have only a little meat on them; you can't bite through these leaves, just scrape the meat off the tip. As you get deeper in the tips get more tender and you'll be able to bite the tips off. You'd understand better if you had a cooked one in front of you :) Hope that helps a little!

Do you put the leaf in your mouth and scrap the meat from the inside of it out? I am going to have to buy an artichoke and cook it and then eat it while looking at the pics...lol
