A recent episode of Good Morning America featured former SF Officer Myke Hawke who was promoting his new book, “Myke Hawke’s Green Beret Survival Manual“.
In addition to a demonstration of fire starting using just steel wool and a battery, he also offered this mnemonic for remembering which berries are safe to eat in the wild.
White and yellow, kill a fellow.
Purple and blue, good for you.
Red… could be good, could be dead.
If [red berries are] growing in little clusters, they’re probably not good. If they’re growing in little singletons, they probably are good.
