Re: My aloe vera STINKS, literally!!

hello,
My garden is full of aloe, sometimes I cut off some plants because they invade the path to go through, and since yesterday I was buying aloe gel for drinking because I did'nt know how to take anything from my plants: the smell is horrible, but the taste is even worse. Just say that I weaned my 3years old daughter by putting a little bit of that juice on my nipples: 1 time was enough, she never ever tried to suck again. Yesterday somebody told me that if you cut one leaf and you leave it rest for one day, this sickening liquid goes out, and cutting off the base of the leaf that is dark colour ant still has a little nasty flavour, you can eat the rest, for instance, in a salad. I don't know if the remaining odourless sap still is useful for the skin, but I would try. I have'nt even tried to eat it yet, but I feel like doing it soon. Tweet
