January 15, 2024

Now is the time when the roots, stems, and leaves of gray gray vegetables are the most tender. In rural areas, gray gray vegetables mostly grow next to weeds, so they are very natural and pesticide-free. Therefore, this kind of wild vegetable is becoming less and less common.

【Is gray gray vegetable toxic?】

Folklore has it that this plant is toxic. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Some people mistakenly identify the seedlings of "mandrake" as this plant, and therefore believe that it is toxic.

There is also a situation where consuming too much of it causes certain symptoms, leading people to believe that the plant itself is toxic.

We need to understand that it is not toxic. However, one thing to note is that it resembles the seedlings of "mandrake."

Therefore, we must not confuse them, because the real "mandrake" is indeed toxic. However, just because they look alike, we cannot say that gray gray vegetables are also toxic.
