The stems and leaves are virtually tasteless and make eating strawberries easier. They even have nutritional value!
minus-squarejusthach@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoI’m confused. You comment looks like two different people making different points lol Hopefully you spit out the seeds? They contain amygdalin, a substance that releases cyanide when it comes into contact with human digestive enzymes. A few apples worth of seeds isn’t enough to kill you or anything, and the seeds are apparently safe if you swallow them whole. FWIW I have eaten apples whole for years, and I have not died of cyanide poisoning yet.
