Why yellow Tomatoes .

The yellow tomato was for a very long time the only variety known in the Old Continent and can be guessed right from the name pomo-d’oro.(golden apple) Over time, the red variety took first place and  now the yellow tomato returns to be known.

When imported from America, tomatoes were all yellow and considered very poisonous. For years they were used only as an ornamental plant, but in the 19th century they were classified as food safe. Thus it was that the cultivation of this fruit began in Europe but only in the red variant because the Mediterranean area was more suitable for this type of tomato. Today, the yellow cherry tomato is experiencing a real new life.
