Eating Tree Bark for Survival ASMR (Silent)
Ойын-сауық
I cut down a pine tree to harvest the cambium layer which is edible. It contains starches or sugars which can help people live though a survival situation or famine. FULL PLAYLIST: • Caveman In The Woods |...
Many trees have edible cambiums, but not all taste very good. I will peel the bark from the tree and cook it in bear fat over an open fire that I start using a primitive bow drill.
Is tree cambium or inner bark good to eat or totally gross? Is tree bark palatable. I will show you how to eat inner bark of a pine tree.
Resources: www.fao.org/tempref/docrep/non...
Cambium contains about 1000-1200 calories per kilogram. As well as being fried, it can also be dried and pounded into a flour or added to stew or soups.
Traditional diets of Indigenous peoples of Canada show that they ate about 35 species of plants with inner bark, cambium and sap.
The most common are in the Pine Family including True Firs balsam fir, or Canada balsam, grand fir fir, and Pacific silver fir.
Other include Slippery Elm, Black Birch, Yellow Birch, Red Spruce, Black Spruce, Balsam Fir and Tamarack. Of all the contenders, Pine seems to be the genus of choice.
The inner bark of balsam fir was grated and eaten by the Montagnais of Quebec. The inner bark (cambium and secondary phloem) of Engelmann spruce was occasionally eaten by the Nlaka'pamux and Chilcotin of British Columbia.
The most important food derived from lodgepole pine, however, was the inner bark, including cambium and secondary phloem tissues, which was an almost universal food of the
Interior peoples of British Columbia. The edible tissue is said to be at its prime for harvesting only for a very limited time in spring, the exact interval being determined by elevation and local weather conditions. It was and is usually obtained in late May or early June, when the sap is running and the cambium and surrounding tissues are thick and juicy. This is about the time when the new needles are expanding and the pollen cones in full production. Sometimes local testing is required to determine whether the harvesting time is right. For harvesting, the bark is removed and the ripe cambium tissues scraped off the exposed wood in long, fleshy ribbons 2-3 cm (about 1 in.) wide and up to 60 cm (2 ft) or more long. Special prying implements were used to remove the bark and scrapers, traditionally made of caribou antler, deer ulna or rib, or shoulder blade of deer or bear, were used to harvest the edible tissue.
More recently, a sharp knife, or a tool cut from the curved side of a tin can, has been used as a scraper. A basket or container placed at the bottom of the tree is often used to "catch" the edible ribbons, or "pine noodles" as they fall. Sometimes, if it were later in the season, the edible portion is scraped from the inside of the bark after it had been removed. Usually only a rectangular portion of the bark 1 to 2 m (about 3 to 6 ft) from the ground is removed, and the tree will continue to grow, the scar gradually growing over. There are many, many examples of such "culturally modified" trees in the interior of British Columbia, although recently, the practice of harvesting inner bark has been discouraged by Forestry management officials, and few Indigenous People still use this food.
The edible tissue was usually eaten fresh, as it was gathered, or shortly afterwards. When freshly harvested, it is sweet, juicy, and somewhat resinous, but when left it is said to discolor quickly and
"go sour." Sometimes, however, it was dried for winter, when it would be soaked in water before use. Some people like to add sugar to this food, making it even sweeter. The Gitksan name for it translates as "tree fat." Bears are said to relish the inner bark of lodgepole pine, and sometimes one can see where they have scratched off the bark to get it.
The Chipewyan of northern Saskatchewan and the Woods Cree of east-central Saskatchewan sometimes ate the fresh inner bark of jack pine.
Ponderosa Pine, or Yellow Pine was harvested in spring and eaten in the same manner. The Flathead were said to have used it even more than lodgepole pine inner bark. The best tissue is said to come from young trees, before they have produced cones, and the food could also be harvested from the twigs and branches of older trees. The tree would be tested first to make sure
the sap was sweet, then the bark was removed with a special tool. The edible tissue was scraped from the wood or the inside of the bark pieces. It was usually ready two or three weeks before. Lodgepole pine inner bark. It was eaten fresh, or stored briefly, and was sometimes roasted and dried for winter.

Do you know if it is safe to eat pine sap. Cambium has pine sap so is a wounded trees blob od sap edible like honey?
I'd eat a whole tree for breakfast if it were possible.

This is very interesting. I also read somewhere that the bark may be more palatable if boiled until soft, or sliced into thin strips like noodles. But not all trees are edible. Thank you for the lesson here.
Go to California there's a lot of cooked tree barks over there.

Silence is golden?? I really enjoyed this, and never seen a video on KZread which was silent. As a survivalist myself, have never eaten tree bark, so it was cool to see this method.
I heard people boiled tree barks before eating them to survive
Chris, I’ve been an avid viewer of your channel since you’ve started. Your silent ASMR’s, hunting’s, cooking’s, traveling’s, construction’s, and down right informative videos have helped me through my deployment with the Military, and my mental health in general. You’re someone I aspire to be more like, and I constantly am spreading your word to my peers. Often, I read KZread comments that criticize you. Weather it be for (undercooking meat) or (putting your health at risk)... I’m commenting today to encourage you to continue doing what you do. You’re healthy, your family is healthy. You’re happy, your family is happy. You’re self sufficient and educational. People are very soft in today’s world and seem to not understand that there are other means of self-sustainment besides the grocery store and food preservatives. I will continue to watch and support your channel until I’m old and grey. I will continue to advocate for you, and I will continue to

Dude, just read the description after watching the video. That's a ton of great information! I had no idea so many trees were edible.
Would you be inretested in going to the. boundary waters? I’ve done bwcaw/quetico trips but I’m always looking for another reason to fish and be outdoors more. Also I am interested to learn more about wild edibles which I’ve seen you eat in videos just need to learn more before I try my self
What types of trees are edible like that?
I eat gravel occasionally.

Nice bow drill fire. We chew up sugar cane , I bet you could chew maple and get some syrup action. Eating the actual wood though is kinda on the high fiber side. Probably would be a rugged digestion. 😃🍺🤙

During wars people had to eat tree barks to survive. I would think it was extremely hard. I am sure it was even harder if they had young children!

Man Eats Wood? There’s a title to ponder.... I know that it was done in times of hardship. I know that it is/ was done by Buddhist monks as part of their self mummification process. Perhaps there is some nutrition in it? It is a plant after all. The Bearded Woodsman really does go that extra mile for us.....perhaps just this once. What on earth is that funny noise in the distance? Oh, his wife 🤭. I’m always impressed beyond anything by the fire starting.☺️🌻☺️

It was much better to try tree leaves or some other sort of greenery than cooked bark.😛

Hi
में आपका फेन हू sir Ji 💓💓💓💓
I've never seen it cooked like Bacon only seen used to make bread and pancakes
Love the your videos but not so much the silent ones, some like this would be better insofar as explaining the concept,not just showing it. Some channels work better being silent, I like it much better when you explain things like this which most of us have never seen or done. Just my opinion though.
