Here’s a chill step-by-step to test out those potentially edible plants.

1️⃣Pick a Plant: Find one kind of plant that looks abundant.

2️⃣Separate the Parts: Break down the plant into its parts. Some parts might be safe while others aren’t.

3️⃣The Skin Test: Start with a simple skin test. Crush a part of the plant and rub it on your skin . Wait for about an hour. If there’s no reaction, it’s onto the next step.

4️⃣Lip Test: Next, place the plant part on your lip. Tingling, burning, or any irritation? Not a good sign.

5️⃣ Tongue Test: Now, touch it to your tongue. Any weird feels, spit it out and rinse well.

6️⃣Chew but Don’t Swallow: If your tongue’s all clear, chew a bit but don’t swallow yet.

7️⃣Tiny Taste: Finally, if there’s still no reaction, you can swallow a small bit. Wait several hours.

8️⃣Cook It: Some plants are only edible when cooked, so if you can, try boiling it to break down any toxins.

9️⃣Gradual Introduction: Even if it seems safe, start with small amounts.
