The message
from "Vicky" contains these words:

I understand that apple leaves are poisonous to a degree and removed one of
those from my baby son's mouth once (that baby is now 9). But then he also

Woodlice used to be boiled for 'shrimp' stock by the impecunious, then
made into a sauce for serving with fish.
