Apparently some of the nettle family have edible berries.

Jared Rydelek's channel is about eating exotic fruits. It's a bit long winded but pretty neat to see the unusual fruits from around the world.

A recent video has him eating a berry from the Gympie gympie/stinging tree/Dendrocnide moroides from the nettle family.

OK, that's hardcore. For the non-Australians in the audience, the gympie-gympie is notorious as one of the most dangerous plants in the world, stings are incredibly painful and can last for up to a year. You can get sick even from being in the general vicinity and inhaling the hairs.


I've been watching weird explorer for years and I had never considered I didn't know his name. I had _no_ idea he's caled Jared Rydelek!

His videos are incredibly interesting and fascinating


I know I'm subscribed to the right channels when I come to HN to post a (rather obscure) YT link and someone's beaten me to it!
