All parts of the plant are poisonous. The seeds may be more toxic than the
fruit. The fruit has been eaten historically, with the seeds removed. I
don't know if people have different sensitivity to it.

Subject: [NAFEX] red elderberry

Today I ate two flower clusters (spikes) of red elderberry. They
were bitter and disagreeable. I was thinking they would be sweet.
Didn't think too much about it after I ate them but several hours
later I got a tingling tongue and mouth and vomited. Can't really
say for sure it was the flowers but probably.
