Foraging can be dangerous, there is no “pretty sure” or “99%”! You need to know 100% that is edible. Let me show you the difference between the honeysuckle Barry which is poisonous, and the Autumn Olive Berry which is tasty and nutritious. Check out my other videos on the Autumn Olive Berry in the health benefits and recipes.

Honeysuckle is Poisonous 🤮☠️🤢
When foraging for Autumn Olive, their berries are more dark red with the dots/speckles
There is a difference between poisonous and toxic. These honeysuckle berries are toxic. If they were poisonous, they would kill you quick. Plants that are toxic don’t kill you but they will make you sick. Of course, there is a spectrum depending on the person. I have personally tried a few honeysuckle berries by mistake and they had no effect on me. I understand the berries probably hurt me in someway internally but it was not poisonous to me. An example of a poisonous plant is deadly nightshade or poison hemlock. I think it is important to understand the difference between toxic and poisonous. The lines are blurred, but there is a distinction.
