- Danger�u.s plants
There are a lot of plants, available to the
forager that are extremely palatable,
nutritious and rich in vitamins that make a
welcome additionto the supper table.
There are others, however, that are deadly
when consumed and these should be
recognized and. avoided. Indians used to
learn which plants not to eat first and that
left them with a vast knowledge of survival'
foods. In an emergency situation, the
poisonous, plants were quickly eliminated
and everything else was utilized to ward .off.
starvation. .
Today'ssociety is . used• to having'
everything cleaned and prepackaged for
them, and they carry this idea into the: bush
with them. If an edible wild food is
abundant and ,easy, to obtain,people may
gather some to take home, but.if it is.
scatteredorinvolves work to collect, it is
most likely to remain untried.. Some of the
poisonous plants,ares unfortunately, easy
to collect so they must be recognized in.
order to. be avoided.
While some poisonous species are exotic
and easy to- identify, . others appear
innocuous and almost beg to be scooped up
and. tried. Water. Hemlock is a good.
example. This. fatuous killer does not.
resemble the Hemlock tree in. any Way, but
is a member of the parsley family. Growing
in swampy areas, the root re'semb'les
parsnip, in both , appearance and. flavour,
and a single bite is enough to kill' a man.
The leaves, while not as! -deadly, can also
cause serious problems.' Water Hemlock
closely resembled' Wild, carrot -(Queen:
Anne's. Lace) but differs mainly in: the
vein structure. The veins, running out from
the mid rib, branch near the edge andend
in the notches of•the leaves. In other.
plants of the same family, the'veins end> at.
the points rather than' in the serrations,
Moonseed is another plant to avoid. This
vine looks exactly like wild grapes, both in
the shape of the; leaf and the size and
colour of the fruit. It also matures,
unfortunately, at the same- time as the
grape does. There are two way to quickly
Separate'th species'however. Grapes have

while the moonseed twines its stem (much
the same as pole beans do) around
supports or itself , in order to climb. Wild-
grapes also contain several, small; seeds
while the moonseed has only one flattened:,

As a young boy;. I collected large .
quantities of horse' chestnuts in order to
take part in the daily chestnut matches' at
school. I remember being told never to eat
any of these nuts even if they did look so,
tempting.:I also remember trying them acid
finding that they were disgustingly, ;bitter.
It's a good thing they were, as .I've since
• found: out that the Horse Chestnut contains
ya'toxic substance which attacks the nervous
system and can; cause death. Some Indian `.
tribes did use these nuts as a food source in
an emergency, but only after a lengthy::
leaching process which removed the pois-
on.
The wild iris orblue flag contains an
irritating substance that can cause severe
digestive upset if eaten. The lily poison
plant looks like a wild onion, but lacks the
onion smell, and is an extremely toxic
plant. The death camass also has an onion
like bulb that lacks the onion smell and
causes vomiting; • ' diarrhea,: and often
death. Jimsen weed smells so bad no one.
would want to eat it, and it's a good thing
as it contains alkaloids related to bella
donna: Dogbane is related to the of sander
which is so poisonous that a stick used as a
skewer while cooking outdoors has been
known -to cause death.
If you are a collector of wild foods; or are
just thinking about it, don't go into it with a
blind eye. Stick to plants you can positively
identify. Go tothe library and find out what
these plants I've just been talking about
look like and watch for them in the bush..
Once you, can identify the poisonous
varieties, you'll feel muchsafer yourself
and start to enjoy nature's pantry to the
fullest:
