Tomato leaf: I ate one

Self-tutoring about tomato leaf edibility: the tutor shares his first experiment.

Back in my October 11 post I mention research that suggests tomato leaves are edible, at least in small to moderate amounts.

Well, I ate a large tomato leaf yesterday straight from the garden. It was bitter, scratchy, and tingly on the tongue – I wondered if I’d made a mistake.

I never felt any ill effects, however.
