Thank you, very interesting! My first thought with roses specifically marketed as being edible is that they wouldn't want to be reliant on toxic sprays to remain healthy, but when I look up the file here of 'Renee van Wegburg' I see that it is healthy and can be grown organically, so they have obviously factored that concern in.
I guess how gimmicky it all is might rely on how true the taste claims are. It suggests to me the description of some wines - I can rarely taste all those subtle taste descriptions.
