Bill,
They are two different things. Chickweed is Stellaria media and Creeping Charlie is Glechoma hederacea.

Just to be sure we're talking about the same thing, isn't chickweed the same
thing as Creeping Charlie? It's a member of the mint family (square stem
cross-section) and inhabits many lawns as a difficult weed. I've always
hated the smell when it's bruised. Are they putting it in salads? Sorry to
press you for details but I'm a little surprised.
