I'm from Jones Country Mississippi and I've been doing research on my tribe Creek and see this is one of the main plants they used to eat. Along with acorns, hickory nuts, walnuts, pecans, persimmon, wild beans, raspberries, grape, and wild seed plants. Like most other tribes, they hunted fish, deer was common throughout ancient Mississippi.

I grew up eating this stuff my absolute favorite I always mixed it with a salad comes out really good. That stuff is good for so many things,improves hair growth,helps prevent prostate cancer,boosts muscle mass,helps Improve kidney health ECT.. The list just goes on and on. Really good stuff!! Thanks for sharing this brother!!

Looks like you would never run out of food where those grow. Pretty much all over Florida and good to eat year round ? A very beneficial plant . Thanks for another great show.

Wow got hundreds of this on my land next to okeechobee lake in FL, didn't know you could eat this.👍

In Okeechobee, Fl there are some restaurants that serve "Swamp Cabbage" which is a sort of cole slaw recipe for hearts of saw palmetto. It's quite good.

thx ., thought this was about the berries but saw palmetto plants take very long to grow .. 1minute to cut & 50 years to grow .. just saying

Man, I could just live out there!!!! if I knew the berries, plants and roots you could eat I could just live out there!!!!

Fascinating to watch u do that. My Mom & I used to always go to the Crescent City Catfish festival. First Sat. of April. They make palm cabbage soup of fresh hearts in huge ancient kettles. I have perfected my EZ version over years using canned hearts. Thanks Jay. Fun to see the process.💚💚💚

Hi Jay, watching this one, been treating my husband I am going to eat the one in our front yard watching you I will have the skill! LOL

That looks interesting. Thanks for sharing.

I was just trimming these back in my yard yesterday and I had no idea it was food! I am definitely going to try eating them. Also want to try the berries and I get thousands each year.

That's awesome! Thanks for showing us about those! I've seen heart of palm in the grocery store, I would guess it's pretty much that stuff! Cool!

Working for state parks heard about it but never saw any of rangers jump in. Thanks for sharing ❤️‍🔥👍

What amazed me the most was that all that hacking won't kill the plant. I didn't know that it was tasty. Will try soon. 4 or 5 of those. Easy for the meal!

Good for inflammation of the Prostate

Very resourceful . I know what I'm adding to my ramen on the next trip!

I'm gonna have to get in my woods and try some of that!!! I hear it is good in stews too 😄

If you cook it, it increases the sugar and starch content, making it a more valuable survival meal. 💚

You needed to say. What up doc. Awesome video. I hope to come down and check it out. Take care man.

Great video sir, I’m surprised you don’t have a bigger following already. Keep up the good work! 🤜🤛

What are the benefits eating this palmetto plants

I've never seen a chigger. ...I think at least. and looks like new goatskin gloves for the occasion??! The best part is when you tried to describe the taste. Overall I would say this was another AWESOME video!! Great work Jungle Jay!!!

Thanks for the info it would be cool to know the nutritional value

Greet video my friend , I take it for my prostrate.

In Belize we do the same with large cohune palm heart. Delicious when cooked and feeds the family for days.

You want to find us a suitable specimen? I think you already did.... haha. Dude your content is lit.

Thank you sir

Excellent video sir! Got me hungry lol. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend! - Shane

Do you know if the berries of the Etonia palm (looks similar to saw palmetto, but no teeth) are edible. The heart is edible, but I've found inconclusive results regarding the fruit and seed.

I didn't know you could eat those! Good to know - and nice presentation as always!

i saw that the sabal palmetto is the official state tree of Florida.

thank you 4 the knowledge

just found ya! thanks! i'll sub and keep watchin'

So once u eat the edible, can u bury the rest and it grow another plant ?

Amigo este saw palmetto no tiene pepas ??

what does it taste like? does it taste like baby bamboo shoots? (i think i have tried bamboo), i think we get saw palmetto here in Australia, well it looks the same.

I am from a small town in Florida and every year we have a swap cabbage festival, we use cabbage palms (Sabal palmetto) though not saw palmettos because you get way more.

Can green apple be substitute for saw palmetto as we cannot find this in India and for leople suffering from DHT hair problems an get cured... Anyone pls help!

Hate ticks and chiggers!!!!!! Impressive machete work! Great video with good information! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for info

Man you ripped it apart like a merciless mercenaries

Swamp Cabbage! Never had it but it looks good. Do you have a taste for the fruits?

I thought that was cabbage palm. And saw palmetto was the berries ?

I need saw palmetto because i got sick of prostate enlargement

Which part of the plant helps with the prostate?

Real cool video.

Hi, I did see your meet and greet at Yankee. Nice channel you have there. Interesting area you life at, and thx for showing how to interact with that habitat to get food. I was thinking about Indiana Jones, while you was cutting that palm 😂😂 Thx for sharing it with us. Maybe I will never come in an habitat like this one Br Mike

Great information.

As videos de sus propiedades y para que sirve

Thanks

Do these produce the berries also ??

wowww.. I never know that.. now I know; is it sweet? or how is the flavor?

Aren't you a bit concerned about gators and/or snakes, walking in that tall saw palmetto?

توجد الكثير منها في بلدي احبها كثيرا. وثمارها تحتوي على كثير من الفوائد للجسم مفيدة ايضا للبروستات

فوائد

I intentionally let the plants get big on our property . They are 52 years plus old I make tea and eat them. The animals wipe them out guick, sguirles, pigs, deer ect. WWE started on blackberries then come the blue berries then saw palmetto berries ect.

Awesome video

Just found ur channel!! So im assuming from this video you are here in south Florida??

I hope it taste good, if I murder on my husbands plant and it taste bad he may not be happy with me! :) Thanks for sharig!

This stuff grows so much like weeds in my backyard. Never knew you could eat any of it. I cut and throw it away all the time.

lovely video. I m taking saw palmetto supplement for hair loss. you are lucky coz u get it raw. wow !!!!!!!

I'm trying to figure out if you have to kill the whole tree to get at a piece of the heart of Palm? Can you eat the berries and save the plant?

😎 👍 👍 awesome!!

We in Indonesia, would like to grow it. Would you like to help us send some seed? Wes will be very happy

jajaja..nosotros no necesitamos guantes! Siempre con la gorra y ropa de Indiana Jones...

Aqui en honduras le llamamos guano. Lo ponemos dentro de las brasas

Is it sweet? Fruit or Vegetable?

Esse saw palmito e um vigor gostei

So you're saying if I like raw potatoes I'd like this?

Not being too careful of snakes, are you?
