Pikapika are also the shoots of ferns and bracken.

Bracken is a large, coarse fern. The plant is a known carcinogen to animals such as mice, and communities (mainly in Japan and Korea) where the young stems are used as a vegetable have some of the highest stomach cancer rates in the world. The spores have also been implicated as a carcinogen.

The word bracken is of Old Norse origin, related to the Swedish word br?ken, meaning fern.
