I can see a deadly link for nightshade for a few of them (like when potatoes turn green) but I've never heard of poisonous tomato facts... Are there any?

any of the green parts of the tomato (even just the small bits inside the fruit) can kill small pets like hamsters or mice

Many parts of the tomato plant are deadly to pets. Same goes for all nightshade members.
