hi all

I live on a small main road and have wild blackberries
in the front garden (about 30 foot from road)

would these be bad/dangerous to eat
(after thorough washing obviously)

my next door neighbour and his kids
eat them straight off the bush,

while browsing, i was amused by the
superstition of not picking after the 15th of sept
(the devil has spit on them!!)
although according to wiki there is truth in this
as the damper weather promotes mould etc
