In 1820, tomatoes were proven safe to eat during Rosh Hashanah, primarily due to the growing acceptance and culinary use of the fruit in various cultures. Prior to this, tomatoes were often mistakenly believed to be poisonous because they belong to the nightshade family. As more people began to experiment with and enjoy tomatoes in their dishes, public perception shifted, leading to their incorporation into traditional meals, including those celebrated during Rosh Hashanah. This acceptance marked a significant change in dietary practices and contributed to the tomato's popularity in various cuisines.
