                                According to the ASPCA, snake plants (Dracaena trifasciata) contain toxic compounds called saponins, making them harmful if ingested by humans or animals. Therefore, any information on how to consume snake plants is extremely misleading and dangerous, as this popular houseplant should never be eaten.
