Which of the following plants was considered as “Devil’s fruit” during the 16th -19th century in Europe?

The tomato acid and lead from pewter suggestion is strange. I agree acid will leach lead from pewter, but not in necessary quantity. Also, people in the 1700 hundreds were accustomed to acidic food. Vinegar was a very common flavouring, even acidulated wine, wine with vinegar added. And other acidic fruits.

That is fascinating. Amazing how people could believe such things.
