Nope. On so many levels...

It’s predictable. Come on! You know you just put a twist on the old "babysitter on drugs (LSD)" urban legend. But subtracted meds from an elderly person, who (presumably) has Dementia or Alzheimer's; Some kind of serious mental illness. And you switched the oven for a rice cooker. So? Cannot say this is an "original". I knew exactly where you were going to end, as soon as I read "PINK tomato plant". Even if this was a true original, it's not even scary. At all. It's sickening. Absolutely horrid. It's not even something that's plausible, like the old urban legend, that could actually happen. ~Babysitter hallucinating on LSD. Had a baby to put to bed, and a raw (pink) turkey to cook in the oven, at the same time & mix them up? Yep. Could happen. ~Elderly person with a mental illness off their meds. In a grocery store alone, mistakes a human infant child for a tomato plant, with a pink tomato, and steals it. Then proceeds to to cook said "tomato" in a rice cooker. (A Crock-Pot would have been better. Seriously) Doing all of this, even when it's screaming & wiggling, and still doesn’t know it’s a baby, before chopping it's head off? Not happening. Ever.

People with Dementia (meds or not) don't have "true" hallucinations. It is severe memory loss (understatement), that affects them in a totally different way. They won't remember a name or face, or where their bed is, etc. But... They're not going to mistake a fruit (tomatoes are fruits) for an infant. On that note: My grandmother has Dementia & I'm 100% sure she wouldn't mistake a baby for a tomato plant. Ever. She has forgotten SO MUCH, but will always know/remember the difference between a living and nonliving thing, at the very least.

JEAR DESUS! What is wrong with you? Do you have any morals or ethics? Come on! This is offensive, inaccurate & insensitive, towards those with mental illnesses. PLEASE, think for a while, then do your research, on any and everything, before you write about it.
