Oops! Tomatoes are off-limits if you are going to base your diet on whole
plants. While the tomato fruit is indeed nutritious, the rest of the plant
is quite toxic. The "whole plant" of the tomato is in the deadly nightshade
family of toxic plants as is the potato plant. So, no tomatoes, potatoes,
rhubarb, cashews, etc., for you "whole-plant" eaters. We fussier eaters will
continue to eat just the tastier non-toxic parts of plants. ;o) Rich
