Nightshade family (Solanaceae):
Tomatoes (yummy)
Nightshade (some are deadly)
Datura (deliriant that causes multi day psychosis, might tank your liver)
Also tobacco and chilis. Nightshades got range.
So many different plants being genetically close (ish) makes it possible to do all kinds of fun experiments with grafting. Something like tomatoes and eggplants that have nicotine (though still mostly in the leaves) or potatoes that also make habanero peppers.
mmmm Tomacco...
Yep – it's actually possible IRL. Unfortunately real life is a bit more boring than the Simpsons, and the tomatoes themselves will only have trace amounts of nicotine in them. Most of it will be in the leaves like in the tobacco plant.
