Consuming any part of a Killer Tomato causes the person eating the tomato to take 6d6 (21) Poison damage.
False Appearance.

While the killer tomato remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a normal tomato.

Actions

Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 0 ft., one target. Hit: 1 bludgeoning damage plus 10 (3d6) poison damage.
Force Feed (1/Day).

The killer tomato launches itself at a creature’s mouth, attempting to feed itself to the creature. If the target fails a DC 13 Dexterity saving throw, the tomato enters the creature’s mouth, and the creature takes damage as per Deadly Flesh. Either way, the impact kills the killer tomato.

Killer Tomato

An innocuous-seeming creature, when encountered alone, the killer tomato has only surprise on its side. However, in large enough numbers, these poisonous plants are quite dangerous. Some chefs do insist that if prepared properly, the toxic properties of this plant can be neutralized, leaving behind the most delicious tomato one has ever tasted.
