> I heard that rhubarb contains oxalic acid and that its consumption should be avoided.  I remember eating delicious pastries made with rhubabrd as a child...

We still eat it, and it's really good. Health recomendation here is that you should drink milk with rhubarb in food. Calcium in milk netralises oxalic in rhubarb.

I have nothing against this recomendation as cold milk goes along  well with rhubarb.
