I am fortunate to live near a very large tree that has
abundant quantities of chestnuts every fall.  My eldest son brought me bagfuls of them last year but I had no idea whether or not they were safe to eat so we tossed them out.  I've looked on some internet sites and some say they are safe to eat when prepared properly while other sites say they are not safe.  How is one to know because if they are safe to eat and I am doing a Paleo diet I do not want to pass them up if they could become a wild foodsource for me.
