Wash and pick over the greens thoroughly to be sure no grain of sand remains.
Dry on paper towels; tear into pieces and chill. Fry the bacon until crisp.
Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat and drain the bacon on paper towels.
Add the sugar, flour and salt to the fat.
Cook and stir 3 minutes.
Add the vinegar and water and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Add the chopped onion and the greens.
Toss well to coat thoroughly; cover and cook 2 or 3 minutes, just to wilt the dandelions.
Serve garnished with the bacon pieces.
A good salad we enjoyed in Iowa when I was growing up.
Dandelions were always plentiful in everyone's yard.
