7 Fruits And Veggies That Have Been Completely Transformed Over The Past Centuries

Tomatoes

It took tomatoes 1,000 years to get their modern appearance. They used to be very small, like today’s cherries. They were also yellow, so people called them golden apples. After turning the tomatoes red, the farmers started working on increasing their size. Thanks to this, the tomatoes acquired their crimson color, but the taste got worse, making modern tomatoes more watery than their sweet and savory ancestors.
