    How is one supposed to eat bay leaves that are often put into foods and soups for seasoning?

    Question #111993. Asked by star_gazer. (Jan 09 10 5:34 AM)

    		They are usually not eaten - they are added for flavor during cooking, then removed, as their taste is too strong and bitter when chewed.

    		Issue: Is it edible?

    Solution: It's not poisonous, but it won't wilt during cooking, leaving edges sharp enough to tear internal organs. By all means, include the flavorful leaves in soups and stews, but fish 'em out before dishing it up, or use the powdered variety.
