Joanna, yes, scoby is a concentrated form of goodness of Kombucha, especially

high in the Kombucha bacteria. Last night I opened a new bottle of Kombucha,

and hey presto, there was a little scoby hat on top. Yum! I enjoyed

chewing that! :-)

If you have not let your brew get very acidic, the scoby can taste pleasantly

lemony.

I swear by its efficacy for nipping a budding cold/throat condition in the

bud. Just chew it and enjoy it as you would a pickle.

All best scobyly,

Margret, resident in UK brewer ;-)

Ah the nicely sour candies of dreams. Every Mom wants a candy that is good for

thier kids. The Scoby has all the goodness of the Kombucha tea and can be eaten.

Some fry them like calamara and eat them as snacks.

I have read and seen some nice results in animals, dogs with their hair all

messed up can benifit by eating " Scoby snacks " , where they grew the hair back

and actually got stronger is the amazing thing.

We here at our house use Brewed KT in our recipes that call for white wine, with

good results, so eating scobies is not out of the question. If I liked the taste

and texture ( mainly the texture) I would eat them today.
