taro?
There are several edible roots of tropical vines, including taro, yam and jicama.
Jicama is a vine, native to Mexico only. Its root is edible and tuberous. The rest of the jicama plant is poisonous and cannot be eaten by either animals or humans.
Cassava root is a poisonous root that can be made edible through proper processing methods such as peeling, cooking, and fermentation to remove harmful toxins. It is a staple food in many tropical regions of the world.
Yes, the kiwi fruit (aka the Chinese gooseberry) is the fruit of a sub-tropical vine (Actinidia chinensis) with a a furry greyish-brown/ skin and edible pale green flesh.
Probably not. I have included two web links to help you make sure. See the related links below. There is also a vine called Potato Vine which is a member of the Solanum family and it is toxic, as are the vines of the sweet potato.
All Sweet Potatoes that are of the Latin name Ipomoea Batatas, have both edible roots,(or tubers)and edible young tender green leaves. You can also eat the dried roots and dried vines. This site tells the story well......http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_potato Some sites list the foliage as toxic. I ate them. I was dilicious and I was ok.
