lol all that brilliant technology and no one could come up with a sp00n? I only say this cause I 'd find it annoying to wipe the sago starch off my face after each meal.

I read somewhere that all parts of the sago palm are toxic??? Maybe they meant the plant itself? and exclude the fruit? This came about when I inquired about eating palm stalks.
