Alicia Silverstone tells fans not to ‘worry’ after she bit into poisonous berry

While in England, actress Alicia Silverstone stumbled upon a bush with berries on it.

As she’s biting into the berries, the actor, known for her role in “Clueless,” asked her TikTok followers if they could help her identify the bush.

“OK, I’ve discovered something that I can’t figure out what it is and I need your help,” she told her fans while holding up a half-eaten berry in a TikTok video posted Aug. 19.

“I just bit into it cause it was on the street and we were discussing whether this was a tomato or not,” Silverstone explained, adding that she doesn’t believe it was a tomato because of the way the leaves look on the bush.

“So what the heck is this because when you open it up it looks like that,” she explained while panning to an open fruit before she proceeds to bite into yet another one.

“I don’t think you’re supposed to eat this,” Silverstone admits, thinking it could be a “pepper” of some kind.

In the comments section, people said the plant is known as a Jerusalem cherry, and it can be poisonous to humans and pets.

According to the North Carolina Extension Gardener Plant Toolbox, ”the Jerusalem cherry is enjoyed as a houseplant because of its colorful berries during the winter months: however, if consumed, the berries are fatal to humans and pets.”

“Who just picks something they don’t know what it is and eats it?” a fan said.

“Even if it was a tomato, it’s on someone’s private front garden, you can’t just reach through their gate and pick their plants,” another comment said.

“WOMAN! UPDATE US. ARE YOU ALIVE AND WELL,” a fan asked.

Silverstone updated her fans in an Instagram post on Aug. 20.

“Alive and well! Don’t worry… I didn’t swallow,” she said in the post.
