Under what circumstance would you eat the seeds of an apple knowing that it contains Cyanide?

Asked by flo (13313points) March 4th, 2020

“Amygdalin is a part of the seeds’ chemical defenses. It is harmless when intact, but when the seeds are damaged, chewed or digested, amygdalin degrades into hydrogen cyanide. This is very poisonous and even lethal in high doses (4, 5).“_
