To determine whether or not a particular food item is safe to eat, it is important to consult reliable sources such as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) website for information on potential allergens and toxins in the food. You should also check with your doctor before consuming any new foods. Additionally, you may want to look up reviews of the food online or ask friends and family who have tried the food item.
