hello friends ..hope you all are good and I wish all your family members are good…welcome to the new blog. this blog is completing related to food..
we all eat different fruits, vegetables …but do you know that some fruits and vegetables we eat regularly are poisonous….wait, wait !!.. it means not completely poisonous but some parts of them are poisonous. we don't even think that they are poisonous.. we take them easy and eat sometimes.. but should stop eating particular parts in some items which leads to death or sick..
now let's see few list of them . lets start our blog!!
I felt very surprising the moment i knew that tomatoes are poisonous..i think you too felt the same. am I right?? it's not actually the fruit which is poisonous but the leaves and stems are, because they contain harmful substance called “glycoalkaloid” which causes stomach upset s and nervousness
sometimes while cooking we cook along with leaves but we must remove them before cooking ..!!
Did you observe that when we buy cashews at store, they are not entirely raw, they have been steamed, they are seeds which grow inside a shell like structure which grows on a fruit. because raw cashews contains “urushiol”, which is almost same as the substance we found in the poison ivy!.. actually if we eat large amounts of urushiol ,we die .but deaths due to cashew poisoning is very rare ,but workers who work to remove the shells get effected .
we all know almond is a dry fruit not actually a nut .almonds are not really harmful or poisonous but bitter almonds are opposed to this almonds . bitter almonds contains “cyanide". so, the almonds are to be undergrown some processes to remove the poison in it. another surprising thing / fact is in some countries like New Zealand ,US selling raw almonds is illegal …This is really making me to shock.
Don't get confused …Apples are fine ,we eat them.. apples are really not poisonous but the seeds of apple are harmful. seeds of apple are harmful. seeds of apple contains "cyanogenic glycosides " . so, actually if we eat one or two seeds of apple by mistake ..its ok .nothing harmful .. but if we eat in huge quantities ,it is very harmful.. due to poison in the them we may even die in some cases.. so, be careful don't eat seeds of apple in huge quantities… don't take it light!!
