Did some checking, out of curiosity.

And yeah. Interesting as hell.

We recorded 65 dBSPL (dB of sound pressure level) ultrasonic sounds 4 inches (10 cm) from tomato and tobacco plants, implying that these sounds could be detected by some organisms from up to several feet (meters) away.

Pineapples dissolve your mouth. Anything with capsaicin is non verbally asking you not to eat it.

…and anything with that many spikes on it is visually threatening your gullet, but it’s still delicious.
