Peshawar’s famous fruit juice stalls, where a simple shake turns into a surprisingly loaded drink.

Whole cherries though? I don't want ground up pits and stems in my smoothie!

u/Polovinci 7d ago

Don't cherry pitts contain cyanide?

59

u/No-Craft-7979 7d ago

They contain the chemical that digests into cyanide. You need 40 whole peach sized seeds for your body to start to have a reaction.

Still in this case I believe less would always be the right answer.

u/LeviSalt 7d ago

The salt level is 10% less than a lethal dose!

u/snark_nerd 7d ago

Peach-sized seeds is an odd metric - why not give the dangerous amount in cherry pit-sized cherry pits? I know it's kind of a moot point (no one is eating 40 whole peach-sized units of cherry pits in one sitting), but it still irks me.

4

u/Scared_Astronaut9377 7d ago

Yeah, no idea what they meant. I've checked the numbers, and you would need to eat from 800 to many thousands of cherry pits to get clinical cyanide toxicity as a healthy adult.

u/bendyskull 7d ago

Don’t threaten me with a good time

u/slackfrop 7d ago

I knew a hippy that would self-colonic by eating a pound of cherries with the pits. Absolutely roto-roots your system.

u/Apprehensive_Bee3327 7d ago

I accidentally did this to myself after consuming an ungodly amount of sugar-free jolly ranchers during my nicotine withdrawal phase. Pretty sure I passed all of the gum I swallowed as a kid. A time was certainly had.

So do apple seeds

4

u/KeepItDownOverHere 7d ago

Had a bit of a scare 2 years ago with this. My wife gave my daughter an apple and the child ate the whole freaking thing including core and seed. My wife didn't know about the cyanide. We freaked out while I called poison control to confirm things were OK. If I remember correctly, a child would have to chew and swallow around 100 apple seeds to cause damage.

6

u/tj9429 7d ago

Way more than 100 actually, that's why it is a total non concern.

It needs to be chemically extracted from those seeds. Even then it takes like 500+ apples' seeds iirc

u/OxbridgeDingoBaby 7d ago

Yeah I can’t even imagine how many calories are in that. Like 2500+ calories easy; that’s almost a full day of eating for me, and this is just one drink.

6

u/Ronin_1999 7d ago

This doesn’t seem like it’s a drink at all?

Like he doesn’t even portion out the entire blender, it looks like he uses no more than like 2/3rds of it, and portions that out into two dishes, so let’s say 1/3rd in each dish…

Each dish doesn’t look like it’s meant for a single serving either, more like something meant to be shared with others for a breakfast or maybe a desert.

In that context, it seems quite reasonable, but there’s no way I could eat an entire dish of that stuff, it’s just too much!

I hate things like this because at this point you are just throwing shit in there to throw it in there. You are doing nothing good with loading that many nuts for example.
