I really love tomatoes. As a kid, I would eat just tomato sandwiches.
I don't share the love, but I can understand! haha. Tomatos are consumed in so many ways, raw, in sauces, salads, etc. I myself enjoy ketchup and pizza sauce quite a bit lol.
Those are very yummy! Has the tomato been around since the beginning of time?
The Spanish actually discovered it during the 16th century
I didn't realize that. Do they grow better in a certain location or a certain type of weather?
It originated in south america, so that is the best place for growing! when the Spanish discovered it it was during contact with the aztec people.
I've tried to grow them myself a time or two but never have very much luck. There are so many varieties in the grocery store. I never know what kind to buy.
There are a lot of varieties grown in temperate climates, if you have a greenhouse you can grow almost any type!
