So much raw sewage is pouring into the sea near holiday beaches on the Kent coast that hundreds of poop tomatoes are growing on the shoreline and from seeds in the human excrement, say appalled residents.
They have reported the sight of ripe tomatoes at Pegwell Bay in Kent, along a stretch which has been the centre of a pollution uproar.
Local wildlife enthusiast Nik Mitchell, who runs the Wildlife Conservation in Thanet page on Facebook, said In recent years I have found lots of the evidence of raw sewage going into our rivers and seas, normally things like floss harps, plasters, applicators and earbuds.
But poop tomatoes is a new one to me.
The human body tends not to digest tomatoes and they are a large part of our diet.

Imagine you're at a cookout.

The dude working the grill is making hotdogs, cheeseburgers, etc.

You really want a cheeseburger.

The cheeseburger is done to your liking, you see a ton of sliced tomatoes.

You like tomatoes on your burger.

You put some tomato on your burger and take a bite.

It's juicy and flavorful.

You ask the grill dude where he bought the tomatoes.

"I didn't buy them, found some growing nearby."

Your interest is piqued, you ask him where and go to pick some for yourself.

You arrive at your destination and see the tomatoes, you walk towards them.

That's when you notice the smell.

You see the tomatoes growing from raw human sewage.

You ate a human shit tomato.
