”as late as the twentieth century some writers still classed tomatoes with mandrakes as an“evil fruit”. but in the end tomatoes carried the day. the hero of the tomato was an american named robert johnson, and when he was publicly going to eat the tomato in 1820, people journeyed for hundreds of miles to watch him drop dead. “what are you afraid of? ”he shouted. “ill show you fools that these things are good to eat!”then he bit into the tomato. some people fainted. but he survived and, according to a local story, set up a tomato- canning factory. 1. the tomato was shut out of the door of early europeans mainly because .a. it made christians evilb. it was the apple of edenc. it came from a forbidden landd. it was religiously unacceptable2. what can we infer from the underlined part in paragraph 3?
