Don't eat rhubarb leaves either

""[The seed] tasted similar to an almond but with a cherry flavour to it - I didn't think nothing of it, just thought it was a seed, so I ate it and continued to eat more of it."

Because you're a fat who doesn't know when to stop?

I was told not to eat them as a tree would grow inside me
I did eat the odd one or two peach seeds when I was young though, they taste like almonds.
