i found this website saying aorns can be deadly but it talks about cattle and acorns can people still eat them

Question: the website said stuff about cattle eating acorns can kill them deos that mean humans shouldnt eat them also? heres the site http://www.caf.wvu.edu/~forage/acorns/acorns.htm also how do u leach acorns?

Answer: There's many different varieties of acorns, but I don't know of any deadly varieties. Most need some sort of processing before people can eat them. It's a lot of work, but the natives did it and used acorn mush as a staple in their diet. Acorns aren't great for cattle, it may bloat them and constipate them. They contain tannic acid. Different varieties in different years have more than others. The web has all kinds of background information on this. If you can find the original website that mentioned "deadly" acorns, see what kind of acorns they're talking about!
