Best Answer

The precise answer is because they were introduced to Italy following the discovery of America by the Spanish.

Naples at the time was under Spanish rule and the commercial ships brought this strange new fruit, or is it a vegetable, to the city.

It soon became popular and lent itself to early fusion cooking.
