By growing tomato and tobacco plants from seed and grafting them together, Rob Baur created a tomato plant with tobacco roots. The leaves and fruit of the tomato top have nicotine in them.

Hmmm, could be easily faked.

Nope. Grafting. Cut the tomato plant about 7 inches above the base of the ground, splice it over a cut tobacco plant and voila! The roots of the tobacco will secrete its addictive qualities into the tomato!

They taste aweful....but it sure is addictive! :p
