recipe: first collect some datura leafs. that'll be the fundament. "in the Middle Ages, it was very popular among professional murderers who used to add parts of the plant with the victim’s food or wine and achieved an immediate poisoning effect, followed by death."

more on datura (stramonium) will be said in the next chapter (method 008)
atropa belladona leaves should work aswell. either of those can be refined with some atropa belladonna berries. it is unknown how many are required (english wiki says 5 can kill an adult. german wiki says 12 can kill an adult. thepoisongarden.co.uk says... a danish boy, 9 years young, survived the intake of 25) for a "good night" meal but by the time you've accumulated a bellyful of them, you've probably had enough. “coma and convulsions often precede death“
-http://www.thepoisongarden.co.uk/atoz/atropa_belladonna.htm"
atropa belladonna, "has a strong narcotic smell, a sharp and bitter taste, and is poisonous [...] high dosages lead to central excitation that may produce restlessness, compulsion to talk, hallucinations, delirium and manic attacks, followed by exhaustion and sleep. the fatal dose depends on the atropine content; asphyxiation can occur with 100 mg atropine, which corresponds to 5 to 50 g of belladonna"
-"PDR for herbal medicine", p.67
the tropane alkaloids it contains are similar to those found in the plants mentioned at the beginning. atropine & scopolamine are present here as well as there. berries, leaves and the root are edible, if they are to serve as your last meal.
instead of onions, use the bulb of a daffodil, where the alkaloid poison lycorine is mostly contained. apparently, people sometimes confuse these with onions and add them to their meals, because they look similar. eating "large amounts can lead to death“

to this, you might want to add some calabar beans, which look nice, like ordinary beans but have an interesting effect. eating them may lead to the "loss of control over the respiratory system, causing death by asphyxiation“
-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calabar_bean
they are part of the physostigma venenosum plant, "lethal doses can cause muscle twitching, spasms, tachycardia and cyanosis through asphyxiation [...] the lethal dose for an adult is 6 to 10 mg of
physostigmine (corresponding to approximately 2 to 3 Calabar Beans)"
-"PDR for herbal medicine", p.137
however, "if you vomit, you'll survive“

a handful of castor beans are also worth a consideration. from a plant called ricinus communis, which is considered to be "the most poisonous in the world“
-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castor_oil_plant
"castor beans are severely poisonous due to the toxic lectin content. The ricinus lectins disturb the function of ribosomes and thereby prevent protein synthesis. 12 castor beans are believed to be fatal for an adult. symptoms include severe gastroenteritis with bloody vomiting and bloodyv diarrhea, kidney inflammation, loss of fluid and electrolytes and ultimately circulatory collapse. death is usually the result of hypovolemic shock"
-"PDR for herbal medicine", p.159
with some wine or vinegar the salad is complete... prepare your stomach (take meds against vomiting) and eat a spoon bowlful, and you'll be no more.
if you don't want to take pharmaceutical products, natural ant-emetics are, for example...
zingiber officinale, "the components in ginger that are responsible for the antiemetic effect are thought to be the gingerols and shogaols [...] in contrast to most anti-emetic medications that act on the CNS. the anti-emetic effect of ginger is thought to be due to local gastrointestinal actions (Mowrey & Clayton, 1982)"
-"PDR for herbal medicine", p.339
but also the root of the phytolacca americana
