Since the Colombian Exchange it has found its way into basically every food culture

Perfect combination of sweet, acidic and umami. If one were to believe in god, which would be foolish, the only reason would be the tomato.

6'3", 210lbs. Virgin? That ended when I was 17 years old. The mcChicken and tendies thread is that direction.

The Japanese use ketchup though.

But yeah, you're right. Wonder why that is though.

And here's my fedora, which yes looks good on a 6'3" 210lb frame. Called a "bitch magnet" in my woods, especially when I have the bantz to match it.

Well at least in Japan they have a lot of Italian restaurants. They also seem to be pretty against fusion food, curry being an obvious exception

I've seen tomatoes in Chinese food but this is American Chinese so it doesn't count
