It looks like a naturally occurring variety, not something that was bred/developed. Its origin is estimated to be Central America, and it’s called 'reisetomate' in German, which means 'traveler's tomato.'
It's not sick. It’s not deformed. It’s not AI fakery. As you can see, it boasts a very unique appearance.
What's even weirder is that you can pick off those lumpy parts and eat them *without a knife*. That’s probably why it got the name—it was convenient for travelers to just carry around and pluck off pieces by hand.
Of course, you can also cut it in half with a knife. I’ve been posting way too many chili/pepper (고추) posts lately, causing some misunderstandings, so I'll try to chill out for a bit, okay? If this was cool/fun/if the OP is a weirdo, please hit the recommend (upvote) button.
"Everyone is amazed by the 'traveler's tomato' and debating if it was mutated by radiation or if it's supposed to be eaten raw, while others are just craving tomato ramen."
