Wolf Peach
The Wolf Peach Story
The story begins in 1519, when Hernán Cortés came ashore
to the Costa Rican gardens of Montezuma and discovered
what we now know as the tomato. He took the seeds back
to Europe where they were ornamental curiosities, but
not eaten. Throughout northern Europe, the tomato was
considered to be poisonous. The wealthy dined on pewter;
the acid in tomatoes reacted with the metal resulting in lead
poisoning and death. Poor people ate from plates made
of wood and were unaffected, so tomatoes became a poor
man’s food. German folklore associates this nightshade plant
with witches and werewolves, coining a name which literally
translates to “Wolf Peach”.
