Fans are concerned for Alicia Silverstone after she posted a video on TikTok where she appeared to pick a poisonous fruit off a plant and ate it. The 'Clueless' actor happened upon the fruit — which looks similar to an orange cherry tomato — in England, according to the video posted Monday. 'Okay, I've discovered something that I can't figure out what it is and I need your help,' Silverstone said in the video, addressing fans.
'Despite their cheery colors, the fruit of the Jerusalem cherry houseplant is toxic and should be kept out of the reach of curious children and pets,' the website warns. 'Any part of the plant that is ingested can cause poisoning and even death.' Ingesting the Jerusalem cherry can affect the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems, potentially leading to stomach pain, fever, diarrhea, paralysis, slowed breathing and delirium among other things, according to MedlinePlus.gov.
