A Florida teenager who “wanted to eat more than her fair share of tomatoes” during a family dinner has been charged after she allegedly attacked her elderly relatives and pulled out a knife, according to reports.

Katie Jade Gates, 19, allegedly became violent at her family home in Nassau County when she was told she shouldn’t take another helping of tomatoes. The ordeal on Sept. 12 allegedly ended with the teen attempting to stab her grandfather.
