Eddoe or eddo is a tropical vegetable often considered identifiable as the species Colocasia antiquorum,[2] closely related to taro (dasheen, Colocasia esculenta), which is primarily used for its thickened stems (corms).[3][4] In most cultivars there is an acrid taste that requires careful cooking.[3] The young leaves can also be cooked and eaten, but (unlike taro) they have a somewhat acrid taste.[3]
