Depends on the herb. Again, I'd suggest checking a reputable herbal -- or
better, several-- rather than using the 'Net. (Don't use Culpepper's or
Gerard's Herbal; also, don't rely on Mrs. Grieve's Modern Herbal to give
an herb a clean bill of health.

Most herbs commonly used in modern food are safe in food quantities.
However, period recipes often use herbs that aren't commonly used in
modern food.
