Tomatoes
Don't eat tomatoes that are (partly) green, because these are unripe, containing the toxin tomatin. This toxin naturally prevents animals (and us) from consuming unripe tomatoes because only ripe tomatoes contain seeds ready for seeding. (if the seeds are not chewed on, they survive digestion in our digestive tract, leaving our body with the feces) Even if red on the outside, tomatoes may still be partially green inside, which means that they are not ready for consumption. So, wait till the tomato is deep red and soft.
