Rhubarb
Rhubarb — tart stalks needing sweetening — often touches pleasant entertainments in seeing it grow, but spirited arguments that lose you a friend in cooking it. The dream may ask where something sharp and sour asks to be handled with care, and whether you can keep a tart situation from boiling into a quarrel that costs you a friendship.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for rhubarb, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of rhubarb growing, denotes that pleasant entertainments will occupy your time for a while.
To cook it, foretells spirited arguments in which you will lose a friend.
To eat it, denotes dissatisfaction with present employment.
