"poke sallet was originally eaten for pure practicality—its toxins made it an allegedly potent tonic. “Back in the old days, you had a lot of people who walked around barefoot,” Twitty said. “They walked around barefoot in animal feces all the time. Most of our ancestors from the Depression backwards were full of worms.” So then, poke sallet acted as a vermifuge, a worm purger."Thanks for the info! yeah it's just growing wild I take loppers & machetes to it but it just gets bigger! .. I hate to chop it down cuz it's kind of to the side and I'm sure the birds are enjoying the berries

shits hard to get off, too. let it dry and you have to sand it offAs kids we used to have wars with the poke salad berries. Everyone would come away purple.
