I am very familiar with good ole kudzu. It can and does take over everything. There is one area by the road I take to go to my brother's in MS where it covers everything. I was going through pictures on my other iPad recently and had pictures of it. I read a few years ago that they were experimenting with kudzu jelly.

Wait, kudzu’s plant, and not a comic strip?

I also read of someone who was going to make ethanol out of it. The algae lobby locked him out of that. They didn’t want a two-fer.

Kudzu jelly is quite nice. They also are making a due from it. Looks pretty good

No, the fact is that Kudsu does not take over the forest. Just to the edge of the forest. Kudzu grows in open fields. Kudzu grows in just 2% of the south. Southerners like to tell stories. They like to exaggerate. Kudzu is good for cattle feed and to give to alcoholics to stave off the desire for more booze. Kudzu can be turned into floor for baking. The Kudzu root can grow to be as big as a human leg. It might be better to plant peppermint. Just 2% of the south is Kudzu. Southerners like to tell tall stories.
