Yep, i just used it last night on a pumpkin and ricotta lasange last night, fried in butter with walnuts, mmmmm... yummy.
Reply:As long as it is not from a White Sage plant (which is poisonous) then why not? Sage is used in cooking all the time and as a garnish on meat dishes. I personally don't like the taste, but a lot of people I know chew the leaves instead of gum.
