| Hello,
I have some Butterfly Ginger growing in the backyard and my hubby thinks its the same as in the grocery store, he's from Oklahoma and not too smart but we have a bet on if it's toxic or not. Help me win this bet. Can we eat it or will we get sick and die??? Thanks for any help.. Bren |

| Thanks for writing and I am a hoot sometimes lol.. My dear hubby thinks he knows every darn thing about everything and I knew he didn't know if they were the same ginger or not so I thought I would come to the ginger experts but your the only one who answered me. I finally researched it and now I know it's not the kind you eat or it might make your tummy hurt a bit so I am taking it off the menu.....unless he really makes me mad in the near future......(Just Kidding!!) Thanks again, Bren |

| Bren, Forget the research! Hysterically LOL Just let him eat it and see what happens! :) And actually, the kind of ginger you buy in the store is a known folk remedy for a tummy ache so if the garden variety does upset his tummy... |
