Tomato mabiliyoni ambiri amalimidwa padziko lonse chaka chilichonse. Ndizosakaniza mu sosi, mavalidwe a saladi, pizzas, masangweji ndi pafupifupi zakudya zonse zapadziko lonse lapansi. Anthu ambiri a ku America amadya pafupifupi 9 kg ya tomato pachaka! Ndizovuta kukhulupirira tsopano kuti sizinali choncho nthawi zonse. Anthu a ku Ulaya, omwe m’zaka za m’ma 1700 ankatcha phwetekere kuti “apulo wapoizoni”, ananyalanyaza (kapena sankadziwa) kuti Aaziteki ankadya mabulosiwo cha m’ma 700 AD. Mwinamwake mantha a tomato anali okhudzana ndi kumene anachokera: kumayambiriro kwa zaka za m'ma 16, Cortes ndi ogonjetsa ena a ku Spain anabweretsa mbewu kuchokera ku Mesoamerica, kumene kulima kwawo kunali kofala. Komabe, azungu nthawi zambiri Kusakhulupirira zipatso kunawonjezedwa ndi olemekezeka, omwe nthawi iliyonse adadwala atadya phwetekere (pamodzi ndi zakudya zina zowawasa). Ndikoyenera kudziwa kuti akuluakulu adagwiritsa ntchito mbale za malata zopangidwa ndi lead ngati chakudya. Pophatikizana ndi ma asidi a phwetekere, sizodabwitsa kuti oimira zigawo zapamwamba adalandira poizoni wotsogolera. Koma osaukawo ankalekerera bwino tomato pogwiritsa ntchito mbale zamatabwa. John Gerard, dotolo wometa, adatulutsa buku mu 1597 lotchedwa "Herballe", lomwe limatanthauzira phwetekere ngati. Gerard adatcha chomeracho kuti ndi chapoizoni, pomwe tsinde ndi masamba okha ndi omwe anali osayenera kudya, osati zipatso zokha. Anthu a ku Britain ankaona kuti phwetekere ndi wapoizoni chifukwa ankawakumbutsa za chipatso chapoizoni chotchedwa wolf pichesi. Mwa mwayi "wosangalala", wolf pichesi ndi kumasulira kwa Chingerezi kwa dzina lakale la tomato kuchokera ku German "wolfpfirsich". Tsoka ilo, tomato ankafanananso ndi zomera zakupha za banja la Solanceae, zomwe ndi henbane ndi belladonna. M'madera, mbiri ya tomato sinali bwino. Atsamunda a ku America ankakhulupirira kuti magazi a anthu amene amadya phwetekere adzasanduka asidi! Sipanapite ku 1880 pamene Ulaya anayamba kuzindikira pang'onopang'ono phwetekere monga chophatikizira cha chakudya. Kutchuka kwa mabulosi kunakula chifukwa cha pizza ya Naples yokhala ndi msuzi wa phwetekere wofiira. Kusamukira ku Ulaya ku America kunathandizira kufalikira kwa tomato, koma tsankho lidakalipo. Ku United States, kunali kudera nkhaŵa kofala ponena za nyongolotsi ya phwetekere, yaitali mainchesi atatu kapena asanu, imenenso inalingaliridwa kukhala yakupha. Mwamwayi, pambuyo pake akatswiri a entomologists adatsimikizira kuti mphutsi zoterezi zimakhala zotetezeka. Tomato anayamba kutchuka kwambiri, ndipo mu 1897, msuzi wodziwika bwino wa tomato wa Campbell unawonekera. Masiku ano, US imakula kuposa 1 kg pachaka. Mwina funso ili ndi lamuyaya, komanso ukulu wa nkhuku kapena dzira. Kuchokera pamalingaliro a botanical, tomato ndi zipatso za syncarp (zipatso). Chipatsocho chimakhala ndi khungu lopyapyala, zamkati zotsekemera komanso njere zambiri mkati. Komabe, kuchokera kuzinthu zamakono zamakono, phwetekere ndi masamba: amatanthauza njira yolima yofanana ndi zomera zina zamasamba.
