Quick spoon question

[Niels]

Can one carve a spoon out of yew and eat with it? (More than once)

 

[Harvestman]

Yes. The wood is toxic if ingested, but you eat the food, not the spoon. A good finish on the wood helps, giving you a little protection as well, but yes, you can use yew to eat with. Some people prefer not to, but I don't see a problem personally.

Ok, thanks
