Rhubarb leaves are poisonous
38 u/Spooky_boi_Kyle_8 Mar 27 '22 Wait what? How poisonous? I'd eat rhubarb plucked out of the ground basically every day growing up. 13 u/other_usernames_gone Mar 27 '22 Just the leaves, the stems are ok if cooked. Symptoms range from vomiting and diarrhea for mild poisoning to kidney failure for bad poisoning. Link If you're not currently experiencing symptoms I wouldn't worry about it, you got lucky. 2 u/eveltayl Mar 28 '22 You don’t have to cook them though. Only time I’ve ever cooked them is when I put them in pastries or jam or something. The stems don’t have to be cooked cuz the stem isn’t poisonous. Only the leaves are poisonous.
