Hmmm, i dont think its true at all. There were no tomatoes in germany from 1912 through to 1944 due to the tomato fields being burned and horseradish was banned in germany from the lare 1800's through to 1944 again...
People who go on this site with inane questions and with inane answer really annoy me - I don't know about other people! If you want to be stupid why dont you go on chatterbox - this is supposed to be a serious site! Yes, I have complained about the content of this question and answer vileness. I go on here to be informed - not to be disgusted!
