  Technically humans can eat the flesh of a ripe red yew berry (aril) but not the seed it contains ... and not unripe green ones either ... but I wouldn’t advise it unless you know exactly what you’re doing.  And apparently it doesn’t taste of much so I won’t bother.

  I haven't been tempted by yew since reading A Pocket Full of Rye.

  I wish I was a glow worm
  A glow worm's never glum
  Cos how can you be grumpy
  When the sun shines out your bum!

  I've tried it just for curiosity's sake. it's not worth the risk in my opinion.
