1. I didn't know anyone had tried to grow it. 
2. I have eaten it wild. As to taste the name used over here in England,
Chicken of the Woods, gives you a clue. Decidedly chickeny, with sour
overtones - actually a bit like Chicken Tikka. Mus be eaten when young, it
goes first indigestible then woody after a few days.
