They are in the same family as deadly nightshade. And I think the fruit of potato plants (also in the same family; and looking suspiciously like small tomatoes) are also poisonous to humans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21359414.post-2196678338470433392008-08-12T08:19:00.000-05:002008-08-12T08:19:00.000-05:00We made ketchup last year too.

It was amazing how once it started to warm up with the spices in it smelled exactly as one would expect.

It just looks tasty! We have had such cool nights, around 55 degrees, I am not sure if they will ripen, the plants are getting blight too because of the cool, damp nights.

The list of additives did not deter them in their loyalty, but they have agreed to eating homemade salsa and tomato gravy, so I must give. My expected excess was trashed in the hail storm yesterday, so I don't know how much of either I will have to put up this year :(Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04016672238795146767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21359414.post-63219258079782525822008-08-10T21:39:00.000-05:002008-08-10T21:39:00.000-05:00I wish I had your skills.
