My grandmother once made me a peanut butter and mayo sandwich, and while it sounds horrifyingly disgusting, I was shocked that it was pretty good. They used to also get bread, spread butter on it, and sprinkle sugar on it.

They forgot the vodka with the strawberries and pepper.

but isn't tomato foliage mildly toxic?
Yes, they are members of the nightshade family and contain glycoalkloids... or something. It's didn't say to eat the stick though, just to add it to cooking tomatoes.
You're not supposed to eat green tomatoes for the same reason, but lots of people do and seem to live thru it.

I ate it, and later I shared this combo with my wife's cousin. He likes it too.

I can tell you first-hand that these are, in fact, pretty good. We used to do "food expreiments" with my dad, to find previously undiscovered combinations by trial-and-error. We also played a game where you closed your eyes and someone would put one of the "experiments" in your mouth, so you didn't even know what it was. That really taxes the synapses, scrambling to recognize and decipher these new signals.
