pokeweed, well known in a large part of the US as the source of delicious cooked greens. You literally have to boil the toxins out over a multi-step process. Many, many more examples of using heat, mechanical separation (other than using knives), distillation, and other forms of separation or extraction can be made.
Admittedly I had no idea about pokeweed, sounds interesting, and I now plan to look more into it. However I never had a problem with the mechanic itself, seperating out the toxins sounds cool as hell. So much so I made another topic with the mechanic being its main focus (Cavefish: The Art of fishing). I just had a problem with the way Lady Goo wanted to implement it, because "cutting" didn't make much sense, since she described it being similar to that of extracting poison from a fugu fish. Which I'm sure you would realize, if you read my original reply to her.

You're right I shouldn't assume, but when you make statements, you reveal knowledge, and if the knowledge revealed doesn't add up, then how else are we supposed to know that you know what you're talking about? It kind of quits being an assumption then. See the example I just provided.
So at this point it's okay for me to point out that you lack reading comprehension skills, and critical thinking skills. Seeing as you prefer to lead with logical fallacies in your arguments, and are now trying to act like we weren't talking about "Cutting" this entire time as if I had a problem with the mechanic itself, which you would you have gleaned if you were capable comprehending what you read. As you say,

If you're incapable of reading and understanding what is previously written, using sound logic , and keeping your feelings out of your arguments, please don't reply to my threads. However, if you are capable, which I believe you are, then please contribute more. Just cut the shit though, please.
