WARNING Huayruros are not edible

Huayruros are not ment to be eaten (just like you wouldn't eat a stone or gem)
Baby Huayruro are small huayruro seeds.
Huayruro seeds used in my crafts can't be planted either because I drill a hole on them ;)
To be in the safe side I don't sell Huayruros for babies online just to my friends and family that have been using them for generations.
Peruvian babies seem to know that they can't eat huayruros.
Well we also wrap our little babies so hard they can't hardly move so it must be the reason ;)
