Google Lens correctly identified it

Our Jerusalem artichoke flowered! I thought sure it would stump Google Lens as it’s a perfectly ordinary looking yellow daisy, but its first solution was correct.
I have a metric shit ton of Jerusalem artichokes.
They don’t come from Jerusalem, of course. The name is probably derived from girasole, Italian for sunflower, and the artichoke part has to do with the flavor. (Somehow, WordPress has figured out I’m in England and has dinged me for not putting a u in flavor. Shoo, WordPress!).
Ooooo…Wikipedia says there’s soup!
