>>1881046>look, wild tomatoes!>that's deadly nightshade, you idiot>wild potatoes!>also a nightshade, have fun vomiting blood>these are beautiful, but they look poisonous>that's American beauty berry, it isn't poisonous, but the berries are very astringent and can cause an upset stomach when eaten raw; they make excellent jelly, can be used to make soap, and the leaves contain natural mosquito repellents>hey, let's pick these mushrooms and cook them!>that is literally GLOWING, it's a jack-o-lantern mushroom and is in no way edible; don't fuck with mushrooms, ever, unless you cultivate them yourself>wild oranges!>no, that's osage orange; the wood makes really good bows, but the entire plant is poisonousYou get the idea. Do your research, invest in one or more books on edible/medicinal wild plants in your area, and if there is any question of it possibly being poisonous, find your local county ag agent and ask them to identify it. That is literally their job.
