One salute to you ma'am from india
I have been eating tomato and potato greens since I was a kid and am 50 now... I am healthy so it makes me wonder why they say it's poisonous
It’s not
I eat potatoes leaves a lot 😉
Sweet potatoes Leaves is healthy what are you talking about? Some countries from west African depends on sweet potatoes Leaves as meal. Though l am from a country that doesn’t know the value of sweet potatoes Leaves, but l have friends who introduced it to me and it’s my favorite sauce, especially when eating with my Rice.
Sweet potato is from the Convolvulaceae or Morning glory family, i'm talking about the true potato from the Solanaceae or Nightshade family, the potato is not native to Africa but to South America
I can’t do without eating it at lest Twice a month.
He has read western literature on the subject and the solanine myth. Millions eat these leaves in India. It is healthy as a vegetable.
Similar to a peanut allergy, if it doesn't suit you, don't eat it. Just don't perpetuate a myth.
It's nothing like a peanut allergy, an allergy is typically a reaction to something on an individual level. Solanine is a toxic substance
You probably are talking about sweet potato leaves in India. Not starchy potato.
I agree. As a Bengali, me and my family have been eating potato leaves with no issues, but if a western person comes to our house and asks what the dish is, they start screaming their head off. Mustard oil too, it’s banned in the US for supposedly being harmful, but everyone eats it just fine, so I don’t know what these people are on about. I think westerners are ignorant of foreign cuisine, and are therefore more apt to make assumptions about it, and all the “scientists” are western centric and will more readily bash on things they are not used to.
@@MyFamilyGarden solanine is found in potatoes. Once cooked its neutralized.
No potato leaves r not poisonous at all
These are not sweet potatoes leaves. Regular potatoes leaves are toxic and not for eating purposes. But sweet potatoes leaves are. They are packed with great nutrients.
You can eat sweet potato leaves
What you call onions we call Shallots! I love shallots in salads! I had no idea that potato leave are actually poisonous! I thought that was clickbait title! I do love sweet potatoes though. Wow that's a lot of rain to have collapsed!
I call them spring onions, shallots are different. A lot of Bengalis make saag from potato leaves so I thought I'd put this out hopefully someone might listen. Thanks Bossy!
Each culture is different. What you call shallots maybe something else for others. It may not he edible for one but edible for others. I love exploring other cultures and learning different things.
Thank you for tell me. I don't want to risk eating poison.
The leaves from sweet potatoes are not poisonous and definitely safe to eat
Natural foods
I say if you're healthy eating it ..bon appetit..
All the processed food is what's making people sick
Oooh good thing to know
I did not know about potato and tomato night shade plant leaves being poisonous.
It's 2023. Zone 6b. U.S.A.
Heavy downpours wiped out veggie garden's this past spring and was called a state of emergency for farms where I live.
Now it's mid summer/fall planting season our farms got flooded again. Absolutely disgusting.
We have small backyard no till no dig and garden was set back giving low yields. DIY composting really helped our garden.
Aww the kids voice is so cute.
Sound advise there. The onions look good, I haven't grown them from seed before but am going to give it a try :-)
I planted quite a few from seed this year
My Vietnamese friend said they eat a lot of potato leaves back at home and I’ve whole bunch growing in my backyard, I was about to cook some for dinner but I was skeptical so I came to TH-cam and saw this so nope, imma bring the leaves to her but I’m not eating what so ever.
That’s good info, I thought everyone knew not to eat potato leaves! I so agree about improving the soil every year! I have had my garden for over 20 years now and the soil has gone from wretched to quite lovely! Compost, compost, compost!
Klaus
Thanks Klaus, sadly a know a number of people that like to eat potato leaves, they just won't listen. 20 years of wow, that's commitment!
I didn't know, and I'm so happy that I searched before harvesting potato leaves for our supper :)
Does anyone know if Japanese sweet potato leaves are safe to eat?
Wow very informative! Being a Bengali, most of my elder generation eat it and so have I!! Never again. Thanks bro 👍
It's the reason i did this video, so many of us used to eat these regularly
Lol I harvested and made a yummy hutki sheeraa yesterday. Inshaa Allah I will buy a sweet potato and eat their leaves instead
My parents used to eat them. Amazed I survived my mum's saags. 🤣
i would no more eat a potato leaf as i would a tomato leaf. as you said, they are a member of the nightshade family. it took years to realise the tomato was an edible fruit..................brian
Unfortunately a lot of Bangladeshi people eat potato leaves, It's hard trying to explain to people set in their ways, it's one of the reasons i did this video hopefully someone might take notice. thanks Brian
I never knew there was a question of whether or not they were poisonous, but as always you always bring the answer to every question that we may have.
Thank you for such a sweet comment. There are some groups of people that eat potato leaves regularly so just wanted to give them a reminder.
Thank you.
Mashallha
Jazakallah Brother
you should still manage to get two trusses of fruit from your late tomato plants. this heat should help.................brian
I hope so, mislabeled a lot of my tomatoes so kept the cherry tomatoes and gave away all my best tomatoes! ☹️ Thanks Brian
@@MyFamilyGarden i always label what i plant out, but the magpies bugger off with the labels. lol..............brian
@@briansgardenandpolytunnel8172 my biggest failing is labelling, just so boring to do...
Hello nice video my friends look great your garden.Like11
Thanks for watching
White potato leaves are poisonous. Not sweet potato leaves
Hello and don t eat potato leaves . Night shade family . Powerful astringent and you can not absorb nutrients . A lot of lectins in night shade and that is not good . Much love and respect . Howie
Thanks Howie, absolutely right sadly there are some people that just won't listen.
Always jobs to do.
If it's not the garden creating jobs, it's the Mrs lol 😎
Mate I’m with you, we bought this house just over a year ago and the back garden was terrible. Just half dead grass.
So everything I’m growing is in new beds and tubs. It’s going to take ages to get the beds right, but I’m working on it.
It takes a long time to get the soil right, most of my beds use the original soil, yellow and blue clay, but it'll get there, tons and tons of more woodchips and it'l get there lol
Try Liberian 🇱🇷 fried potato greens, boiled potato greens with palm oil, and rice. They are rich in Vitamin B !
Sweet Potatoes 🍠 yes. White potatoes no. 4:25
Is it okay to use the potato greens as compost?
Yes absolutely fine
My potatoes look great but have now realised you can't eat the leaves. Need to try onions and garlic next
Very nice, time to plant garlic will soon be here
The bugs eat the potato leaves. Why cant i. Whats so poisonous about them. Please reply
I would like to state that this is a false claim since I eat it all the time because it’s in my culture and it’s very good and not harmful to me ok the people I know that eat it. We are actually getting benefits from it. Please next time can you do a little more research and if you find proof then I will believe you. But as of know I don’t because I eat it all the time.
Not being dead doesn't mean it's not doing you harm. Potato leaves, the potato fruit, green potatoes, tomato leaves they all contain solanine, which is poisonous.
What is your culture?
@@MyFamilyGarden Your wrong, it has been apart of the African culture for centuries and it has been beneficial. Maybe you have took the wrong breed, but when we eat it we get strong and faster, so therefore your wrong. 😑
@@MyFamilyGarden I don’t want to see you reply again to me because it’s no point you are wrong.
@@MyFamilyGarden I will dislike.
@@MyFamilyGarden Also it is not hurting us.
Really good video and cannot wait to see more. I love the editing.
Thanks Ed still learning how to edit I'll get there eventually. Thanks mate
Brother, you are publicly denouncing one of our national foods. Look at the negativity brewing in the comments here. I eat the leaves all the time as have my ancestors and their ancestor. I have looked into the studies and there is no concrete correlation between eating them cooked and death/illness. Yes it is the night shade family and contains solanine but I dont think it is as dangerous as you make out. I think eating the leaves raw or improper storage of potato is more dangerous. Please confirm your sources..ie which Bangladeshi person has died or become ill as a direct result of eating potato leaves in the curry. I like all your videos apart from this one. Sorry and thanks
Unfortunately not everyone will like everything i say, this video is an important reminder for people if it helps keep one person safe then it's worth it. Alhamdulillah.
It's not a national food nor has it been eaten by our ancesstors, it's something very recent, potatoes were only introduced into india in the 17th century and in to bengal moe specifically in the 18th century. They're not a native plant. Solanine is not removed through boiling or stir frying which is the way most people eat them, there is some evidence that deep frying can break down solanine so fried chips would be safer to eat than cooked leaves.
I put the information out there, if you want to take it on board or not that's totally up to you.
@@MyFamilyGarden Thanks for your reply kind sir and I stand corrected on the history. I didn't realise potatoes came in so recently. Just out of interest would you consider eating of the leaves haram on the basis that it is harmful? Thanks again 👍👍
@@bandit12-- no I wouldn't say they were haram, to apply the principal of harm, the effect must be immediate and extremely severe not a cumulative build up
@@MyFamilyGarden understood thanks. You are very knowledgeable!
Allah only gives us a tiny drop
Thank you for sharing the info
Thanks Rocco
Do you have minimal irrigation? I have heard that potato leaves are eatable. Thanks for giving more insight on that.
Congrats on monetization
The sweet potato leaves are supposed to be edible. thanks borther for all your help along the way!
Nice garden you got. Keep working on it

3ft is normal, don't worry

Hello and Good Day Mr Monty. ✌💟✨😊
Hi Jessica
Salaam. Had no idea the leaves weren't edible. My wife grew some potatoes and we are the leaves all through Ramadan last year! Oops. Great videos masha'Allah
They're actually good
Are potatoe leaves really dangerous to eat?. They grow up so fast n 1 week the grow up plentiful

Great video buddy
Thanks bro

Have u grown potatoes in loamy soil please comment me
I have lots of videos on growing potatoes take a look down my videos
Great information thanks for sharing your poor water butt's
Thanks mate, just another job in the never ending list
Oh, Man! I harvested my potatoes today (small to tiny ones... I don't know why they're not bigger), and I rinsed off the greens. I was going to cook some for dinner, but first I tested a couple of leaves. I washed them and ate two small potato leaves which left an irritation in my throat. I said, "This is not for me," and threw the rest of the greens out. Then I searched startpage.com to see if they're poisonous, and sure enough they are! Uh oh. Now what do I do?
I ate some ginger root to try to digest what I ate. Then I called the poison control center. Since I only ate a tiny bit, there was nothing else I needed to do other that have a meal. The pharmacist said the irritation in my throat is probably all that's going to happen to me.
Very nice video aap bhi aaye friend
