  I mean I’m no botanist, but aren’t all of the crops mapped onto the little girl actually just nightshades with extra steps?

    Every plant named in this meme is a nightshade.

  Oh shit I’ve been eating these for years along with millions of people. Are we all going to die?

    It’s the name I’m on about. It’s not really mainstream friendly. I’m sure they are lovely.

      I’m just poking a bit of fun at the absolute panic people experience when they hear the word nightshade. Despite the fact that people have been eating a variety of nightshade species for thousands of years if not longer.
