Desert Survival Food: Yucca Fruits -Junkyard Fox 

Awesome vid I'm homeless in the desert this helped me a lot , thank you.

I'm really happy I found this channel because I'm planning on moving to the southwest sometime really soon. Especially after playing Fallout NV, it made me really wonder about all the botanical bounty found in the desert after scavenging in-game. Thanks for showcasing your knowledge about these things!

I have yucca in my front yard and had no idea! Awesome.

The Yucca is so very useful! It was invaluable to the Apache as well as many other indigenous tribes. Thanks for sharing! :)

I stumbled onto your videos and I have to say they are very informative. living in a high desert state, I find myself starting to pay more attention to the plants around me now. thank you.

I love the music too.

I'm surrounded by these right now. Good to know they're edible in a crunch. Cheers!

thanks for the training on how to process these and for the cactus videos. this will come in handy. love the desert.

100 bonus points for the roasting chile reference, great video as always. Please do many more on survival desert foods.

The Badger was cool. Always enjoy learning something new.

We just went out this last weekend and tried the flowers before they opened and they were pretty good. I guess we'll have to wait for the fruit to establish itself in Western Nebraska, Thanks for the video!

I appreciate your videos. It is good to see someone process, cook, and eat what they find. Food is good stuff.

You my friend have been very helpful. Thanks for your time.

Great show. If I ever get lost in the wild west you've saved my life!

We just acquired hundreds of Yuccas .... watching them this summer was fascinating...I wish I had tuned in then but alas now we have a ton of seeds. Thank you for all of the info!

Awesome video! Thanks for the pointer.

New Vegas brought me here.

Very good! Nice background music, pleasant, thank you.

Just found your channel today and can't stop watching the vids, I'm learning so much! Thanks!

that was great. i have seen those yucca trees and ate the flowers and seeds but i never thought of cooking up the green pods, excellent video, o grew up in so Cal but my dad dragged my brother and i all over the Mojave desert. great time survival camping. thank yu

I knew about the flowers...but the fruit is a first for me....thanks a lot, greetings from Costa Rican

Haha, man after my own heart - carrying spices with you.

Very relaxing video to watch. I love the southwest as you know. Your always offer such a great get away to that special place. Every video is like being back there for me. Thanks for this.

Just found your videos and so far I love them. The yuccas in my yard are blooming so I picked a few of the fruit and threw them in the oven with some oil, salt, and pepper. Seriously delicious, and taste very similar to okra.

That was very interesting. Thank you!

Another great video- thanks. When I backpack I take some different spices in old film canisters- small and lightweight, I call it my "food repair kit"!

I learn so much from your RU-vid channel thank you!

This was great, I’ve got a neglected one in the backyard of my new house....thank you!

you are super cool with your knowledge and style. love the music. you are also very nice to look at.

After binging all these desert survival videos, I wanna play New Vegas again. x_x

Beautiful!

I'm really enjoying watching thru and studying your desert bushcraft videos, thanks so much for the time and effort you put in to share your experience and knowledge. I am moving back down to Baja Sur in the fall... I became interested in bushcraft living in Central Oregon over the last 2 years... can't wait to apply some of your teaching in Mexico.

Nice video.......i love it.

I have a cluster of Yucca in my front yard (Pennsylvania) that just has a ton of fruit on it! So glad to know it's edible and how to cook it!!

thank you very much for these videos. very interesting stuff

Thanks for this video. I'm excited to pick, roast and try

Great Video and thank you for your knowledge of all things possible in the Desert Southwest. I knew that these things were cattle and animal feed but for a person to eat these is new to me.

Looks good my friend. Always good to learn new wild edibles.

The flowers are really good depending on the species and when you eat them. The yucca in San Diego county has pretty tasty flowers. The fruit has to be eaten at just the right time or they get so bitter you can't eat them. Awesome seeing the badger. I've only ran into bears, coyotes and bob cats. Luckily have never ran into a mountain lion.

Your videos are fun!

awesome thanks for the videos..

Awesome video

Another well done video!

Thank you so much for your info on the yucca plant..!

Great videos

Awesome video. You live in a beautiful place.

Gran video, saludos desde España. Me encantan tus espuelas amigo.

Great video. I live in Arizona so its nice to see some one do Desert Survival.

That was cool running into the badger.

Awesome video thanks for the life tips

I just found your channel great stuff , gracias 👍🏽.

I just discovered your videos and really do enjoy them. My Dad had a big ranch in Mexico across from Big Bend National Park and I spent a lot of my childhood down there. We had a guy that watched over the goats and he stayed out with them for weeks at a time. I would always go out and visit with him and sometimes camp there. The BEST thing I ever ate was Pack rat, do you happen to have a video on this. He had some small corn tortillas and salsa ,,,,, YUMM!!

Thanks for the vid.

I love this channel

I like your grill idea!

Ha! never seen yucca fruits in my life! Never spent time in the desert though will one day, new environments are incredible if a little intimidating at first, thanks for your insight!

Wowzaaa Suchha Handymann~ My grandparents + I really amire your videos+ we love watchin your adventure timez:D keep it up ✨

great channel!

Loved glimpsing the badger, its good to know what is edible in the boondocks, haven't seen any Yucca species like that here, so much to research and learn. COOL upload buddy! :)

Great video my friend, love the area you live in!

The barrel cactus is fruiting and my dad introduced me to them. Their taste was a bit like a very tame green bell pepper. Older he becomes the more he is remembering. We sat eating a small plate of the yellow fruit. Sooo many tiny black seeds.

Nice video!

Good video! Im gonna hafta try this.

Important info thank you. One just never know.

good stuff.

Great vid, Nice shoutout to bob hansler

Badger! Nice vid my friend....

Too cool!

I make a 50/5- blend of flour and the puffy cat tail blossom. I can either make ash bread or pancakes. they are great and a way to stretch the flour you have. good video I will try the flied hearts of cat tail the next hike I go on. It amazes Boy SCouts when I can put a dinner together in the wild. Great video

Really good video my dude.

Great video ! I've watched it a few times just to catch all the details. I hope you know how many lives you touch by sharing this information. I'm a retired engineer and finally living outy dream of living off grid. I believe society has become consumers and need to wake up to the creative marketing techniques that keep so many there at the cost of their health. I grew up on a dairy farm up by lake superior where we grew our own garden and bought very little from the store. Picking wild berries and catching wild trout and pike was fun but also very healthy. I'm building a flexible form rammed earth house from my land. It makes perfect Adobe and has been used for houses some as old as 130 years here. I'm using some earthship ideas with no heating or cooling required also. I hope to forage this spring when my work slows down and your channel is a great start. You've earned my subscription and keep the videos coming. Merry Christmas and happy new year to you.

I can not believe that badger let you get that close to him. Pretty cool. Great video! I added this one to my 'recommended' list. Hope you don't mind.

Awesome I'm going to have to try cooking the fruit

thanks man. im mew to texas and have seen these so u just taught me something. thanks

Awesome:') I didn't know you could eat that..thanks for the info on it

Nice video James! We got lotsa yucca out where I live too... never cooked the fruit to eat tho, gotta try that! Thx for sharing!

Hella cool bro!! I got a yucca plant outside my house! Gonna try forsure

I bet those would be great on kabobs, you think? Thanks so much for the video, I drive through a huge Joshua Tree stand every week. I already harvest and use prickly pear, and now I'm looking forward to exploring this fruit.

Thanks. Might be to late to find these but I will look.

I dig your videos man I hope you keep making them. Subb'd up.
