Actually, it's only toxic if it's consumed without being cooked. It's "taro", or "malanga". You can peel, boil, mash with butter and salt, and eat it perfectly fine. It's actually great for your stomach if it's upset (such as vomitting/diarrhea) and it's filling! Go to your local grocery store/farmer's market and try it. :)
