Not to worry if you don't know what to do with that real tree....you can just eat it! Sure the whole recycle thing is probably your best bet, oh and do NOT just burn the thing...unless it's in a pan with some seasoning. According to author Julia Geogallis why just toss your Christmas tree, when you can serve it for dinner? The book "How to Eat Your Christmas Tree" is now available on Amazon. This sounds like a hidden camera show, or something some "Youtuber" came up with.
