Are pine needles poisonous if ingested?!


Question:
Answers:
Depends upon which pine. Pine trees contain terpines which are poisonous. And you could always make a mistake and eat hemlock.

Other Answers:
I'm sure that eating a LOT of pine needles wouldn't be very good for you, but pine needles are traditionally made into tea, which as well as not being poisonous is a good source of vitamins A and C. <3
