The ancient Indians of the American Continent looked at the tomato and noticed many similar characteristics.
The stem that connected to the vine resembled the pulmonary artery of the heart giving it life and support. When cut open they notice the four chambers of the tomato, two higher and two lower exactly like the heart.
The Indian medicine men noticed that they felt much like holding a heart in their hand.
It was even said that tomatoes were called “love apples,” because of a superstition that eating a tomato would make one fall in love.
