Thanks for the info.


Glad to see you're still with us.

How'd it go.


Fortunately I had boiled the hell out of it before I ate it, boiling
removes the toxins although you are supposed to boil it twice and I only
boiled it once. I didn't have any symptoms but that's the last time I eat
any unfamiliar plant. My gardener had told me that he eats this all the
time but he is from Jamaica. I suspect that they have a different plant
that looks like pokeweed.
