That reminds me of the threads/comments about the spoiler tagging in Lemmy being broken in many apps, hopefully that'll be worked out sooner than later.

This is a spoilerMagneto kills Dumbledore in Mordor

Just tested and it doesn't seem to work in neither Connect, Voyager/wefwef, Liftoff nor even in Jerboa... Only worked in the Lemmy PWA.

I looked up cellulose and it does say that it is used in some drugs and other consumables yeah, but it's still indigestible, so it wouldn't give you any nutrients to survive if eaten by itself, I guess.

Oh right, I just remembered that Norway did make something like "bark bread" in the past during famines, and that linked Wikipedia article says:

The inner bark is the only part of a tree trunk that is actually edible; the remaining bark and wood is made up of cellulose, which most animals, including humans, cannot digest.

I just got started testing Google Bard, so I fed this question to it and got this reply:

No, humans cannot eat wood. Wood is made of cellulose, which is a type of fiber that is not digestible by humans. If you eat wood, it will pass through your digestive system without being absorbed. In some cases, eating wood can cause blockages in the digestive tract, which can be dangerous.

There are some animals that can eat wood, such as termites and beavers. These animals have special enzymes that help them to digest cellulose. Humans do not have these enzymes, so we cannot eat wood without getting sick.

I like swiping to upvote in Voyager/Wefwef, but I do end up downvoting by accident from time to time, before I fix it.

Once I'm retired, maybe I can finally finish my backlog of 2000+ games on Steam
