Looking for Some Mom Wisdom

Does anyone know if the buds that grow out of potatoes are poisonous?

Only if they're green. Or if they're covered in poison.

The solanaceae family of plants includes potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, and tobacco. The green leaves and stems contain various alkaloid chemicals, such as nicotine in tobacco.
