100 grams of the whole eggplant contains 100 nanograms of nicotine content or 0.1mg of nicotine (1 nanogram = 0.001 micrograms). This is probably too low of a density to be useful.

However, the Nicotine in Eggplant is in the seeds.

Eggplant seeds, which are the tiny, grainy pieces inside the flesh of typical eggplants, are unavoidable when eating the vegetable. They add texture and flavor, and they are embedded in almost every bite. But the insides of their seeds contain trace amounts of nicotine - the substance primarily responsible for the addictive properties of cigarettes.

The standard seed yield is between 600– 800 kg/ha (kilograms per hectare). A hectare is 10,000 meters-square.

With proper cultural practices, farmers can harvest as much as 18,000 kilograms of eggplants from a hectare of land.

Roughly the seed mass ratio is 3% to 4% (assume 3% for simplicity). So if 100g of Eggplant contains 0.1mg of nicotine, 100g of EP-seed would contain about 3.4 mg (or 0.0034g) of nicotine

Note: 100g of tobacco would (on average) yield 3.5g of nicotine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco

Therefore Eggplant Seeds have about 1/1000th the nicotine of tobacco.

My wife makes Babaganosh the proper way, by burning eggplants on the stoves gas burners.

It's a mess to clean up (my job), but I can't argue with the quality of the resulting product.

Plot's of movies but with an eggplant smoking trolley robot.

super sweet best pal

Had some eggplant for dinner. Had it in soup, it was good.

My nephew moved in and he doesn't like eggplant so we don't eat it anymore. Or mushrooms. Or walnuts. Actually, we just eat pizza now.
