My neighbor gave me a bag of these. Anyone know what they are? How are you supposed to eat them?

If you have a photo of the bag and its contents, upload it here and I can help identify them.

Until we know exactly what they are, don’t eat them or make tea from them. Some edible plants have poisonous look-alikes, and cooking does not necessarily destroy plant toxins. Texas Poison Center Network+1

For the best identification, send:

  • A clear photo of the whole bag

  • Close-ups of the leaves/seeds/fruit

  • A photo of the plant they came from, if available

  • Any label or name your neighbor gave you

Once I can identify them, I can tell you what they are, whether they’re edible, and the usual way they’re prepared.
