So funny how, as long as you cook it, it's way less risky to eat the meat of an animal you don't know than any part of any plant you either don't know, think you sort of know, or confidently think you know when there is another one that really looks like it, but the thing is you've never looked at them that closely and rely on vibes but that's a mistake you can usually only make once, so now you're dead.

#Bloom talks #this post is brought to you by the Apiaceae family #everybody say hi Apiaceae! aka the “full of yummy yummy plants but also very very deadly plants and they kinda look the same” family #of course that applies from laymen if you have grown up with plants you're extremely familiar with then you're good #same if you've been taught how to identify some common ones #but SOME plants are better left alone if you're not 300% sure and checked four times before putting it anywhere near your mouth #that said. I would love to know what belladone fruits taste like. it's forbidden knowledge. it's a siren call I must resist
