This is news to me, but I was always kind of onto cauliflower just being albino broccoli, so not too surprised there.

We eat like 2 plants. One is brassica mentioned above.

The other one is nightshade. In the nightshade family we find tomatos, aubergine, tobacco, peppers, physalis, potatoes and of course the extremely toxic bella-donna (deadly nightshade)

Just a small correction: you missed an "a" in bella-donna (bella donna means "beautiful woman" in Italian)

Doesn't sound like a complete diet
