Those are cannabis plants, not tomatoes. Although botanically speaking cannabis and tomatoes are basically cousins, and have very similar growth requirements. So if you "accidentally" planted cannabis and fed it thinking you planted tomatoes then it would do quite well.

    They contain the mildly to moderately toxic alkaloid tomatine lol, you're gonna become a medical case study if you smoke the leaves.

    This is from wikipedia so take it with a grain of salt, but you'd have to ingest over half a kilogram to get toxic and not lethal doses so as long as you smoke the tomato leaves in moderation, test away!

    Yeah it's not super well researched, but ingestion and inhalation dosages can be extremely different. Hence you'd likely be the subject of a case study as it would be a significant addition to the medical literature on tomatine toxicity in humans.
