I used to eat the shells on sun flower seeds. That’s basically wood and it was indeed edible.
I still eat the shells on sunflower seeds. I would just buy them de-shelled if I didn’t want to eat them.
Umm ew, David
Related: videos about how much sawdust you can put into rice Krispies before it’s noticeable.
Spoiler: it’s like 30% by volume. Pretty wild.I think MatPatt did the same thing with christmas cookies lol
William osman, i love it.
Wait until OP finds out about cinnamon
Heart of palm as well
Or bamboo
Instructions unclear domesticated the Wild Jungle Cock.
That’s grass
Grass is trees.
Any wood is edible if you puverize it…
Wait till they learn about Kraft Parmesan “cheese”. We call it sawdust at dinner.
And snortable!
But can it be boofed?
Title of my new YouTube channel called it.
Justice Kavanaugh, getting a little bored just sitting around doing nothing on the Supreme Court? Decided if you’re going to be shoving things in your butt anyways you might as well film it and put it on YouTube?
I dar you to eat pulverized Hevea brasiliensis.
All trees are edible if youre not a little bitch.
birch
The fruit of this tree are edible raw or cooked. Although if eaten raw, the skin must be scored for some time in order to release a copious latex.
The wood of the yacaratiá tree is served as a delicacy in Argentinian restaurants. The wood is soaked in honey or syrup and is also available in chocolate bonbons or in flavored jams with sawdust. The wood is soft and fibrous and the taste has been compared to chestnuts.
Reminds me of that YouTuber that keeps turning wood into ice cream.
Not a chance they can make a restaurant like this in Argentina. They are one of the most reluctant people to try different foods.
Also I’m double sceptical since the same article says it grows in tropical forests in Nicaragua etc, and Argentina has a single smallish area that could be called tropical forest, and that would be a stretch.
I totally agree, you can’t get most Argentines to eat anything different from milanesas, pasta and asado. Drinks too, you get hundreds if not thousands of different soft drinks and juices in other countries, here its just cola, fanta and sprite kind of beverages.
And I never heard of wood being served in restaurants.
They are one of the most reluctant people to try different foods.
Really? I’m surprised.
NileRed, I assume?
Isn’t that another? I remember a Youtuber who made living rat neurons play DOOM. He also made meat leaves, btw. And socks from milk.
That’s the Thought Emporium
This YouTuber was the one I had in mind but NileRed is another great one.
Or the “How Much Sawdust Can You Put In A Rice Crispy?” video where they loosely tested how many percent of a rice crispy could be replaced by sawdust.
The next paragraph adds the explanation, why its wood is edible:
Although most wood is indigestible to humans due to the high lignin content, the yacaratiá tree is only around 10% cellulose while the rest is mostly water with very little lignin content. Unlike most plants, cells of this tree contain large spaces within their walls which store water.
It is in the Caricaceae (Papaya family) and apparently a pioneer species just like papaya trees. No wonder it is mostly water and hardly any lignin!
Lignan deez nuts!
Sorry
Persimmons are like 40% lignin by weight. They are the largest cause of phytobezoars.
what youtuber
Found this Spanish language article about it. Sounds like a single company has developed the process to make it edible in 1999.

I meant to register 7cannibals.com
“7 cannibals to be renamed to 6 cannibals after recent tragedy. When asked for comment the cannibals declined only stating that a per his wishes it will be a closed casket”
I mean all wood is edible for the most part. It’s also in a lot food!
Cellulose! It’s used to keep your shredded cheese from sticking together.
Just chewing on a twig of oak or fir isn’t gonna kill you.
Be careful with that advice. Yew is highly toxic.
Edible, Non-Toxic, and Food form a Venn diagram.
Bamboo would like a word
Fake wood. FAKE
Unamerican Fake wood, only the democrats could like it. An Oak tree came to me, big oak, strong oak, tears rolling down its eyes thanking me for finally ending the madness of the fake oak
Bamboo is a grass.
That’s an extremely fast-growing monocot though without the ability of secondary growth and therefore with a much lower lignin content.
Anything that can be eaten without causing harm is edible. The question is if it’s also digestible.
I watched a video from a guy who just goes into the forest to find ways to eat the trees. He really passionate about it.
You found a termite
