Boiling also works to make acorns
edibleconsumableless lethal. They still taste kinda bad though.where’d you get them being lethal? far as i’m aware they’re just a real bother for your stomach with all the tannins, but not outright lethal. People have made quite a lot of acorn bread in tough times after all
It’s hyperbole. I don’t think you can die from consuming them (don’t quote me on that, guess it depends on dosage).
I would think you get a bad tummy ache when eating them raw and maybe liver damage and/or a nutritional deficiency long-term.
Bread might get hot enough to break down the tannins. I just always thought beechnuts taste better ;)
