Insane, isn’t it? Tomatoes were an ornamental plant in Europe even after they were introduced for almost 200 years, on account of it being part of the nightshade family (and thus, thought to be poisonous). Tomatoes in Italian cuisine only date to around ~1700 AD, yet it’s hard to imagine it without tomatoes!
