The Tomato Origin and History in Western America
The wild tomato likely originated on Peru’s coast extending to Mexico and possibly California. It took a century to gain acceptance in Japan and the United States, once viewed as poisonous. Early botanists named it Lycopersicum esculentum, with “tomatle” from the Amerigo word rather than the Latin term.
