As I get the story on tomatoes, they were not eaten because the color red was associated with the devil, similarities to nightshade...used in Druid? rituals and by 'witches' in thier flying ointments. I do believe that love apples, May apples and passion flower fruit are the same things and are not poisonous as many think. I recall perhaps that Passion flower is the natural source for valeric acids ie valium. Ken
