    Are Pepper Seeds Poisonous?
    Can anyone tell me if pepper (as in the red / green / yellow / orange variety) seeds are poisonous?

    I've been told it by a couple of people but I'm not sure whether to believe them or not!

    I really don't think so.

    I'm confident that you won't die if you do so.

    Actually people, I spent most of Friday night shaking, throwing up and having hot flushes because I put green pepper seeds in a curry (I had never used pepper before).. I felt totally awful so I wouldn't suggest eating them.

    That may have been an allergic reaction, or maybe from something else you ingested.

    Could have been, but everything else I'd eaten I'd had before. I had heard they were poisonous so maybe they are to some people.
