The same could be said for red berries, as I don’t know anyone who would play those odds, and I don’t know anybody who would risk eating a white or yellow berry if the old proverb is to be believed.Ī much better and far simpler solution is to simply spend a little time getting intimately acquainted with both the edible and inedible berries that grow in your region or in any region that you regularly work or travel in. Under what conditions will you be so hungry, or so starved that you are willing to take a chance with an unknown type of berry based on its color alone? I am not asserting that such a scenario cannot or has not happened just that it is unlikely you will ever be put to the test in such a way.Īnd even if you were, I guess it is nice knowing you should take your chances with a blue or black berry first before you try any others, but that still does not tell us very much about the risks involved. The problem is that advice of this type is just not very useful or actionable in any circumstances that can reasonably be imagined. And so on and so forth, with the majority of blue or blackberries being safe. You might also read that about half of red or “ruby” colored berries are safe to eat with the other half being anywhere from mildly toxic to ferociously poisonous. Often advice on the subject will advise readers to avoid all berries of white and yellow color because berries of that color are almost always toxic and rarely edible. This advice typically revolves around the color of the berry and what percentage of berries typically possessed of that color are safe or toxic. Unfortunately, the greater body of prepper lore is sometimes contaminated by well meaning but ineffective advice as to what kinds of berries are safe to eat, or at least safer to eat. Some of the worst offenders, which happen to appear quite tasty, can even inflict significant organ damage or cause your heart to lose its rhythm. Though generally toxic berries are less harmful than poisonous mushrooms and other plant matter there are still many kinds that can make you dreadfully ill or even kill you. It goes without saying that you should never risk your life or health by eating berries of unknown type.
Don’t Put Unknown Berries to the Taste Test You still don’t want to be taking your chances if you don’t have to, but with just a little bit of prior study and some common sense you’ll be reliably snacking on tasty nutritious berries found growing wild in no time. Luckily for us, dealing with berries is a far sight simpler than rolling the dice on an unknown or potentially dangerous mushroom. Huckleberries can be purple or nearly black and are safe, while Pokeweed berries are nearly identical with a deep purple color, but are highly dangerous. Both edible and toxic berries can be found in all common colors including black, purple, blue, white, red and yellow. There is no color that is universally safe to eat, but there is no color that is universally dangerous, either. So you may be wondering: what color berries are safe to eat?
