History of tomatoes

The history of tomatoes begins with the Maya and other Central American tribes, who were the first to cultivate them. Later, in 1520, the Spaniards imported tomatoes from Mexico and introduced them to the United States through British colonialists. However, it took some time before this beloved fruit became popular among the general public in the United States.

During this time, people often believed that tomatoes were poisonous. But the reality was that rich Europeans ate it on delicate, lead-based plates.

Tomato History

The history of tomatoes traces their original origin to South America, where small tomato fruits were first discovered and used both orally and therapeutically. Afterward, tomatoes spread to countries such as Peru, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom. Today, they are grown and consumed all over the world. Moreover, there are many varieties of tomatoes, which makes it one of the most widely consumed vegetables globally. In addition, the tomato is an annual plant whose tall branches can grow up to one meter in height and produce yellow flowers.
