It has a distinct bitter taste that either is loved or hated....kinda makes me think of dandelion greens, either love em or hate em....so give it a try, either the tort will love it or hate it...but there is nothing that I find that shows it hazardous for tortoise consumption...but I would be curious to know if the tort in your care actually likes it :)
