3:20 PM PT -- Alicia Silverstone confirmed she's still with us Tuesday afternoon, posting on Instagram, "Alive and well! Don’t worry… I didn’t swallow 😉😛"

Alicia Silverstone had fans freaking out over her health ... with some even asking if she was still alive ... after she munched on what they identified as a poisonous berry.

The actress was clearly, ahem, "Clueless" about her snack choice ... revealing in a TikTok clip Monday she had no idea what the orange berry was that she picked from a random bush in someone's yard during her latest UK adventure.

Alicia admitted she'd already taken a bite to figure out it wasn't a cherry tomato ... but gave it another chomp on camera, saying it kinda tasted like a pepper.

Realizing it probably should not be consumed by a human, Alicia gave fans a close-up of the berry ... which they quickly identified in her comments as a Jerusalem Cherry ... warning her it was so poisonous it could be deadly.

If you don't take their word for it, the Northern New England Poison Center says eating a Jerusalem Cherry -- AKA Solanum pseudocapsicum -- can lead to symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, drowsiness, hallucinations and heart issues.

No official word yet on how Alicia’s doing, but she posted a few IGs after the video, so it seems she's survived. Still, a major life lesson ... don’t munch on random fruit from other people’s bushes if you can’t ID them!
