1. You can eat leeks in summer, but the taste may be worse.
2. In my hometown in the countryside, there is a saying that "leeks in June will stink to death". In summer, people in the village rarely eat leeks. Leeks grow quickly in summer, and a crop can even grow in three to five days. Such leeks do not taste like leeks, just like eating grass. Leeks are fresh from both ends. There is no shortage of various vegetables in the village this season, so there are fewer leeks to eat. Leeks in summer age quickly, are not easily digested, and can easily cause diarrhea. This is the reason why many people have diarrhea after eating leeks.
