Dont know but i ate some raw coconut palm heart a while back as my friend in Indonesia cut down a few coconut palms to make way for a building, tasted okay very clean and crispy kind of like cabbage, locals went crazy for it as it's a rare treat.

Chamaerops seeds smell like sick when ripe so probably won't kill you but there are nicer things to eat.

Edible, but will the worst flavour!!! It is like green rotten dates

Thanks all for the information.  It look so juicy, so make me wonder.

I wouldn't recommend tasting them though...

I tried to taste some chamaerops cerifera seeds years ago. It tasted like real dates but with much more fiber...
