00:00Fans are concerned about actress Alicia Silverstone after she posted a video to TikTok on Monday,

00:06which showed her eating an apparently poisonous fruit she found on the street.

00:10The clueless actress was in England and asked her followers if they could help her figure

00:14out what the fruit was.

00:16OK, I've discovered something that I can't figure out what it is and I need your help,

00:21she said in the video.

00:22I just bit into it because it was on the street and we are discussing whether this was a tomato

00:27or not.

00:28Silverstone, a known vegan, said she didn't believe it was a tomato because of the leaves

00:33growing on the fruit.

00:34She then showed her followers where the fruit came from, which was behind a fence in what

00:39looked like in front of someone's home.

00:41So what the heck is this?

00:43Because when you open it up, it looks like that.

00:46She said as she panned the video over fruit smashed on the ground showing numerous seeds.

00:51And if I bite it, I don't think you're supposed to eat this, but it's almost like a pepper.

00:55Does anyone know what this is?

00:57I don't know what it is.

00:58I need someone to tell me.

01:00Fans immediately identified the fruit as a Jerusalem cherry, which is native to South

01:05America and is poisonous, according to gardening know-how.

01:08Despite their cheery colors, the fruit of the Jerusalem cherry houseplant is toxic and

01:13should be kept out of the reach of curious children and pets, the website explained.

01:18Any part of the plant that is ingested can cause poisoning and even death.

01:22Eating the fruit can cause symptoms from abdominal pain, hallucination, paralysis, and more,

01:27according to Medlineplus.

01:29Silverstone has not posted on social media since uploading the video.

01:33The Clueless star, 47, recorded herself eating a piece of fruit that has since been identified

01:39as poisonous, leading fans to express their concerns for the actress' well-being.

01:44In her TikTok video shared Monday, Silverstone explained that she's discovered something

01:49that I can't figure out what it is and I need your help.

01:52I just bit into it because it was on the street and we were discussing whether this was a

01:56tomato or not.

01:58She continued while showing off the piece of fruit to the camera.

02:02According to MedlinePlus, the Jerusalem cherry is poisonous and primarily affects the gastrointestinal

02:07and central nervous system.

02:09Poison symptoms include abdominal pain, diarrhea, fever, hallucinations, headache, and paralysis.

02:15Silverstone, who has over 4 million followers on TikTok, has yet to post on social media

02:20since eating the fruit.

02:22Can someone tag me when we know she's okay?
