Oh yeah? Well technically some really expensive coffee brands that people pay a lot for have coffee beans that went through the digestive systems of lemur-lookalike creatures, so you're paying tons to drink poo water.
Also bananas and tomatoes are berries.
A bit of instant coffee in the bottom of a bowl.
Add 120g of frozen blueberries.
Add a sprinkling of roasted cashews.
Add some whole milk. (Or, heavy cream if you're feeling thin that day.)
Top with a generous poof of cinnamon powder, and a tiny bit of sugar.
Stir and enjoy.
Doesn't Ceylon Cinnamon have negligible amounts of coumarin compared to Cassia?
It blows my mind that cinnamon trees are a real thing. I can go walk through a cinnamon forest!? Wtf, how is that real? That's some CandyLand/Narnia shit.
I always wondered how a cinnamon forest would smell.
Like chicken, of course.
Much like all forests
Everything is toxic in large amounts, even water
what are kidneys for then ?!!
Because our water is basically all dihydrogen monoxide at this point. We're so fucked.
Our water is becoming increasingly less dihydrogen monoxide and more micro plastics. Thats why we're fucked
Consume too much? Dead.
Inhale too much? Dead.
Go too deep into it? Dead.
We really should be regulating the stuff.

What did the Jamaican priest say to the thief stealing from the church?
(In Jamaican accent) "You're a cinna mon"

As a forager I don't see anything wrong with eating a tree... As long I'm 200% sure what kind tree I'm eating.
Ever eat bamboo? Delicious
I have and I hated it. But I think I didn't know how to prepare it.
Bamboo is grass.
Every dust is sawdust after you see it.
... ... Fuck you.
We are all sawdust on this Blessed day
Daaad! 🙄
If you witnessed a toothed cutting implement in action, you saw a saw saw.
We gotta crime seen here!
Shredded cheese has cellulose (basically sawdust). It’s added to keep the cheese from sticking together. Or that’s my understanding.
It's actually potato starch.
Sawdust isn't just cellulose. Wood is a matrix of cellulose fibers bound together by a tougher compound called lignin. While lignin isn't particularly toxic, you wouldn't want to eat it.
Fun fact, a lot of the process of making paper is for removing the lignin, only the cellulose is useful for making paper. And grasses like bamboo have a higher ratio of cellulose to lignin, so it's better for making paper
Its not always potato starch though.
I mostly know this because my daughter is allergic to potatos so we have to only get certain brands of cheese.
This might be the worse allergy I can think of. I didn’t know anyone had this allergy. I am so very sorry to hear this.
Oh its been worse. But at the moment its become down to potato and lettuce. Its all part of her Mastcell related to EDS. Ten years ago when she was in High School basically the only only thing she could and did eat was plain chicken and plain eggs. At this point, with medications, she can mostly eat normal, aside from the potato and lettuce.
Wow, so trees are made from potatoes, that's wild. Mother nature, you crazy!
Lignin my balls
Potato sawdust. Haha. I knew it wasn’t sawdust like trees but it was a dusty material made from plant but I didn’t know what kind.
Thanks! That’s pretty cool
its also poor mans cocaine, as well as nutmeg.
Nutmeg is incredibly unpleasant for drug purposes, ask me how I know
Ah, right, the nutmeg cookies of auntie, with far too much nutmeg. Eat two and you'll get funny.
Instructions unclear. I just sprinkled cocaine on my rice pudding.
Well, actually... it's ground into a powder, rather than the byproduct of sawing. I don't think it counts.
I will saw my cinnamon sticks just to prove you wrong.
