Huh, always had Beavers down as ThinkPad T-Series users…
Cinnamon and sumac are two common spices that are made from grinding up tree bark.
You using a different kind of sumac than the rest of us? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumac#In_food
Also ginger.
And technically wormwood too, although that’s more you drinking water that is soaked into wood.
Ginger is a root, maybe you’re thinking of something else?
Eh what is a root if not wood that is covered in dirt
So is a potato wood? A carrot?
Ginger is not a tree. It’s a flowering plant.
A potato is not a flowering plant it’s a tuba, such as an onion. Totally different thing entirely to a bit of wood attached to a tree.
uhhhhh what
I’m guessing it sort of came from the fact that we cook food with burning wood. Less so now, but burning wood meant cooked food for 200k years.
I don’t think wood smells like it is edible, but a fire can remind me of food through smell.
I’m not sure I agree about the smell of wooe, but the cambium of many different tree species is perfectly edible. Have at it, my friend!
is your pizza made of… wood?
It what? Who thinks wood smells edible?
Maple smells like sugar when cut. Maple syrup used to be made of the sap.
No it doesn’t
OP confirmed for beaver with dental issues.
It might interest you to know that we do eat wood when we eat that sprinkled parmesan or romano cheese in the plastic containers: It contains wood to prevent the cheese from clumping (and it counts as fiber)
If you consider cellulose to be wood, sure. They don’t put actual wood in there.
What cellulose do they use then?
Cellulose can come from just about any type of plant. Cotton is almost entirely cellulose, for example.
I don’t know what their cellulose comes from, but saying cellulose is trees is like saying milk is cheese.
Maple syrup is tree blood. Kind like tree vampirism.
I don’t think wood smells like food. But I wonder… apparently termites have a bunch of gut bacteria to digest wood. Maybe if you eat raw termites and bark beetles, you can then eat some sawdust. If you continue the process eventually you may be able to eat wood or paper with your own gut biome. Maybe start with a termite, sawdust, and banana smoothie and move up from there. Best of luck.
U can eat it. Its just not particularly nutritious or paletable.
I still wonder why if we need more fiber in our diets we don’t just toss wood pulp in everything.
Apparently supplemented processed fiber gives you liver cancer though.
Tldr: Inulin bad.
I wonder how depression era sawdust bread would work though.
A lot of processed foods do have wood pulp in it. Often labeled celulose to hide that they just putting wood pulp in ur food.
That’s what coffee is for.
Call me weird, but I have never once salivated to the smell of any wood.
weird.
All the 10s in my neighborhood love to gobble on my wood, though?
Edit: It was a joke. There are no 10s in my neighborhoods, and if there were, they would probably not choose to have intimate relations with me.
