Another user flagged concern of using flower petals grown by using extensive insecticides and pesticides for cooking and wrote, “These roses are cultivated for decoration purpose using heavy insecticides and pesticides. One should not even try to take the fragrance (which is also not there) let alone eating this. There are many varieties of rose and this one (dutch rose) is just for bouquets.”
