Alicia Silverstone, 47, shared a video on Tuesday (20) in which she attempted to taste a fruit that was later identified as toxic. Fans became desperate due to the lack of updates on social media.
In a video shared on Instagram, Silverstone was on a street in London when she picked a fruit from someone else’s garden to try it.
“If I bite… I don’t think I should eat this? It looks almost like a pepper. Can someone tell me what it is? Thanks!” she said.
The actress’s fans commented that it was a Jerusalem artichoke, which is mildly toxic. The news worried everyone when Silverstone delayed posting updates about her health status.
Hours later, Silverstone posted a photo with the caption: “Alive and well! Don’t worry, I didn’t swallow it.” The Jerusalem artichoke is harmful to humans and animals if ingested.
Fans felt relieved and later joked about the situation. “For someone who cares so much about what you eat, you shouldn’t eat anything you don’t know.”
Alicia Silverstone became a vegan in 1998. She published the cookbook “The Kind Diet,” which promotes a plant-based diet.
