Discover the Surprising Truth: What Foods Actually Contain Nicotine**
Nicotine, a highly addictive substance primarily associated with tobacco products, might surprise you by its presence in certain foods.
Eggplants and Potatoes: The Hidden Nicotine Source
Eggplants and potatoes are notorious for containing nicotine, although in significantly lower concentrations than tobacco leaves. A medium-sized eggplant holds around 100 nanograms of nicotine, while a medium-sized potato contains up to 38 nanograms.

|---|---|
| Eggplant (medium) | 100 |
| Potato (medium) | 38 |
Tomatoes: Surprising Source of Nicotine
Tomatoes, often thought to be a healthy vegetable, also contain nicotine. A medium tomato has approximately 7 nanograms of nicotine. This amount is smaller than in eggplants or potatoes but still present.
