Could Sam talk about elderberries- will eating raw elderberries make you sick? Is there a difference in eating wild versus cultivated elderberries?

[@brandonedwards9361]

Read about it.

[@andymoore5300]

Yes read eating raw elderberries can make you sick/ bad stomach aches. Eating a few probably won't do anything but either way best cook down.

[@marthathompson2012]

The problem with responsible foraging is the large number of people who are irresponsible people.

[@SP-up2xb]

You will live longer if you are not eaten by a bear while foraging.

[@brandonedwards9361]

One of the few indigenous references in this series that didn’t come across as racist or disrespectful (from what I’ve seen)

[@thetawave2473]

Jesus dude, who gives a sh*t. Take your anti-whiteness elsewhere.

[@tparker2095]

You people are fucking insufferable lmaooo

[@stingingmetal9648]

Oh stop. People don't MEAN to be racist. Stop trying to assign it. I see why you say it but I truly don't believe they are actually racist. It's more of a subconcsious mentality that they don't realize.
