Many years ago when I was a boy it was quite common to find tomato plants
on
the wasteland heaps out the back, some with potatos on the roots.

Are you sure you were not simply finding potato plants in fruit and
mistaking them for unripe tomatoes?

And it would be extreemly dangerous to eat the unripe 'tomatoes'!
