No worries! We appreciate it, especially when it’s one (very important) word that isn’t likely to get caught through simple editing passes!

Always welcome. Sorry for the prescriptive and rude manner of my comment.

I 100% knew that! I think when I was writing it, my brain must’ve been like “green = chlorophyll” for some stupid reason. These articles can be exhausting to write, it definitely results in brain fatigue after a few hours. Thanks for catching it, I got it corrected.

If it was, leafy greens (green from *checks notes* chlorophyll) which most people enjoy would make 100% of the population sick, rather than the very small amount that are oxalic acid sensitive. What is toxic is the solanine that potatoes produce as an anti-herbivory strategy, which is said to be produced in greening-up potato tubers.
