I can think of half a dozen 100% all natural plants off the top of my head that can kill you, quickly and painfully. Why do people assume that? I've heard "Its safe because its all natural" more times then I care to remember.
For you idiots out there who want to argue with me, YES cyanide is all natural. Shhh..

When people are saying all natural when referring to food, I think it's pretty obvious that they don't mean it contains cyanide, or any of the other half dozen plants you know off the top of your head that can kill you. They're saying it doesn't contain artificial sweeteners/flavoring/preservatives/etc. Chemicals that are not naturally occurring historically have given more cause for alarm than natural ingredients.
Water is 100% natural and can kill you too, but 99.99% of the population isn't going to drink enough of it to cause death. You going to start asking why people drink water too? Use your head.

So is oliander pulp and it will kill you quickly and painfully. A big oliander plant has enough poison to wipe out a small city! For that matter, the mohave green rattlesnake has a brutally leathal nuero-toxin that is totally natural. So it is true...All natural doesn't mean always safe.

Yeah right, show me where you can get 100% natural cyanide. The stuff we get out here has all sorts of preservatives and crap!

Ingredients:
strawberries,
applejuice,
whey,
cyanide,
Skim milk,
cocoa,
marijuana.
That's quite a smoothie!!

I agree with you. Just because something is all natural, doesn't mean it's safe. I mean, not meaning to be gross, but poo is all natural, but you don't want to eat that either.
