Can you eat cheese plants?!


Question:

Can you eat cheese plants?

on toast.


Answers:
Whilst recognising that the question is not serious I am rather suprised that so many people have not heard of the (Swiss) Cheese ~Plant which is an ornamental indoor climber which looks like an overgrown plant of the rubber plant family. It has bright green leaves with holes in them which makes them look like slices of Emmental cheese. It is related to Diffenbachia which is also known as Dumbcane or Mother-in-~Laws Tongue because it can make you very quiet.

The leaves, stems, and roots have needle-shaped calcium oxalate raphide crystals. If eaten, these cause an intense burning sensation in the mouth and throat and temporary paralysis of the throat muscles.

It is highly toxic to many household pets.

So cheese plant on toast is only to be reserved for the Mother-in-Law (should you wish to end up in court).

I ate a spaghetti tree for breakfast. And I went into the backyard this morning to harvest some fresh Pop Tarts.
