Watch Triumph of the Tomato

The original Peruvian tomat'l, "swollen fruit", was yellow and the Conquistadores prized it for its blossom. But in Europe under the Spanish sun its lycopene went wild; rounded and red, it became irresistible. In Austria they still call it the "paradise fruit", and in Italy the "golden apple". This was surely the real forbidden fruit in the world's first seduction!

Triumph of the Tomato is a 2016 documentary with a runtime of 48 minutes.
