I always found it interesting that squirrels, rabbits, and raccoons in my yard avoid eating the tomato’s. You’d think it would be an easy snack.

- coolspot 5y agoTomatoes are red, obviously poisonous.
- catlikesshrimp 5y agoI don't know if you are serious. But they do look poisonous anyways. Where I live there are poisonous berries that can be mistaken with cherry tomatoes.
- jeddy3 5y agoTomato are closely related to tobacco IIRC (as well as potato). There might be traces of nicotine in the plant, which is a pesticide. This actually also might give some fuel as to why people considered it dangerous. EDIT after googling: Yes tomato contains nicotine, in particular before ripening.
