In boy scouts, we were told we could eat any fruit or berry with a star on 
the bottom.  I'm not sure, but I think they were even more specific and said 
it had to be a five point star.  Looking back now, I guess anything with that 
star must be from the Rosaceae family.  I remember debating with my father 
that it meant I could eat Mountain Ash berries.  He finally said go ahead and 
I did.  That was my one and only taste of Sorbus.  One of these days, I'll 
try a better one.
