FYI: A friend's mother ended up an intensive care unit because she ate green potatoes. It took a while, but she is on the mend. I am posting links about the toxin, Solanine (an alkaloid), that resides in the nightshade family.
Link 1 (foods that contain Solanine)
Link 2 (Solanine Toxicity Syndrome)
Link 3 (New York Times Article)
Link 4 (What is Solanine? @wiseGEEK)
I want to get this information out there. I will add more links and refine (and edit) this post as I uncover more facts.
