Supposedly it's where the plant buds, but since what we eat is actually a large unopened bud, I guess the eye of an artichoke is in the center of that part (were it to open). But what do I know? Anyone out there a plant expert?

Yes, slumry, a combination of baleful stares and doleful glances.... ;-)

Oooh, but I love them so - 'specially their tender little hearts. Reesetee, where are the eyes?

With baleful looks?

I've caught them staring at me more than once.

Perhaps vegetarians should think twice about eating artichokes, with their eyes and hearts.:-)

I did too--but apparently artichokes do, in fact, have eyes.

Kind of creepy, isn't it?

Artichokes have eyes, too‽ I thought they just had hearts...

mind, dice (snake eyes), peas?

Rib, peacock feather, artichoke, bolt, target (as in bull's-eye)? And I don't know whether a camera eye would count--I suppose it depends on your definition of sight. :-)
