I never thought poke tasted near as good as spinach, which I dearly love either cooked or raw in a salad.  We always ran poke weed through at least two boilings with pouring the water off each time, and never had a death, or even a sickness from it.  There are, of course, people who might be allergic to some chemical in poke.  Allergies are strange things.  I am allergic to aloe vera and many other plants of that ilk.  Go figure.
