Wow, I never knew tomatoes had such a history! Thanks guys! I especially love my tomatoes sliced up and dipped in sugary sugarrrr! I also like it when it's cooked but even when it's raw it tastes awesome!
Some people say I look like a tomato when I'm angry lolz~

I've never known people eat tomatoes raw with sugar. You're like one step away from drinking ketchup the whole day!
