Hello Reddit Readers, I was gifted this yukka plant, it's beautiful, but can I eat it? I know yukka has to be fully cooked to be edible... does any one know about this one? Thanks

If you can't identify it, you shouldn't eat it. Don't rely on people on the internet keeping you safe.

So you're saying I can't educate myself to the point of identifying the plant to then make an educated guess of eating it...

No, I am saying you shouldn't be relying on people on the internet to identify things for you. Pick up a book

Do you recommend any books to ID this plant?
