Tomatoes are native to South America and were originally grown for their decorative purposes.
The tomato is actually a fruit but is considered a vegetable because of its uses. They were affectionately known as pommes d’amour by the French, or apples of love.
All New Zealand tomatoes are ripened on the vine which makes them tastier than some imported varieties.
