Thread: Getting back to living off the land.....

I have heard that bracken will affect pork quality. The roots can be starchy and I've certainly seen pig rooting in bracken patches. The content of some of the stomachs of pigs I've gutted looked like it could have included bracken roots/rhizomes whatever they are called.

I seldom eat pig's liver nowadays. I believe that is where any toxins are likely to be in their highest concentration. And I figure that some pigs may have eaten poisoned possums... or even directly consumed a sub-lethal dose of poisoned bait. I don't eat possum livers for the same reason.
