The tomato is the edible, often red fruit of the plant Solanum lycopersicum, commonly known as a tomato plant. Both the species and its use as a food originated in Mexico, and spread throughout the world following the Spanish colonization of the Americas.

The tomato is consumed in diverse ways, including raw, as an ingredient in many dishes, sauces, salads, and drinks.
