Which month can't eggplant be eaten?

The harvest season of eggplant is from June to July in summer. Now with the greenhouse, eggplant can be eaten all year round.

It is a folk saying that you can't eat eggplant after autumn. The reason for this is that solanine (an alkaloid) will be produced in eggplant when the temperature drops after autumn, that is, solanine (an alkaloid) will be produced in germinated potatoes. After frosting in autumn, the content of solanine will be higher, which is much higher than that in summer with higher temperature. After planting eggplant in the field in early autumn, the solanine content will increase. In addition, the solanine content of purple eggplant will be higher than that of green eggplant. However, a large intake of solanine will cause gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea and vomiting. Even respiratory paralysis, etc., and solanine is basically insoluble in water and cannot be removed by blanching, boiling and other methods. Therefore, "eggplant after beginning of autumn" can't be eaten, which is not good for your health. This is a general statement based on long-term experience.

And now many eggplants are planted in greenhouses, and the temperature in greenhouses is still relatively high. There is no such thing as autumn in the eggplant planted in greenhouse, so the solanine content in eggplant is low, so "eggplant after beginning of autumn" can't be eaten, which is not suitable for modern society, and there is no scientific basis at the same time, so it can be safely eaten.
