How would you like to have been the guy that figured out that tree's almonds weren't poisonous?

To be more specific, it's cyanide poisoning. I believe it's still in wild varieties of almonds.

One of the symptoms of cyanide poisoning is an almond like odor in your breath

Apples still contain a very small amount of cyanide and most of it is in the stem iirc

That giant seed inside of the peach contains trace amounts of arsenic.

Also the Almonds trees are beautiful this time of year. The pedals come out white as snow and then fall off and pile up on the ground like snow. One the greatest sites to see in the Central Valley.

i heard this one time that a long while ago poisonous almonds were really cheap whereas the non-poisonous variety could cost you an almond a leg

[Xhozer]

almonds make me hospitalized :(

[Harm94]

I have a really freaking bad allergy to almonds so they basically are still poisonous to me anyway.

Is shame, this nut allergy thing has become epidemic.

Does your entire diet consist of soda, deep fried stuff, fast food, and junk food?

err no
They have selenium. Selenium overdose has some symptoms similar with radiation poisoning, but due to I suppose that House episode and no one actually understanding them when they speak medical, I would understand how someone could be misinformed into believing this.

[Niff]

I only like almonds in cereal
