[QUOTE="donna723, post: 182685, member: 1883"] If there's a poisonous kind of bay tree, I've never heard of it! I was always told to take the bay leaves out if you use them in soups or stews. But that's because the spines of the dried ones you buy in the grocery store remain very stiff and hard even after cooking, like a sharp little twig, and could possibly hurt your mouth or throat if you tried to eat them. I don't know how it would be to use the fresh leaves when you're cooking ... probably very good! I'd still take them out before serving the food though, just to be on the safe side. [/QUOTE]
