回复baixianwan的评论:
在网上的确查到如是说,”Tomatoes ARE poisonous- but only when eaten green in large quantities. Early growers may have eaten their crop before it matured and gotten ill, thus leading to a belief that they were always poisonous. How large quantities? 'Cause I've been eating green tomato pie my whole life with no ill effects.” by Four Kitties.

同时,也有许多用绿西红柿做泡菜的方子。同事说她们从小就吃这种Pickled Green Tomatoes。 不过,还是在这里声明一下,吃者责任自负,咱可担不起责任。
