However, then the tomato miraculously resurrected to its former glory, aided by a retired priest who believed in the sanctity of all vegetables.  Luckily, this vile priest and his heresy were burned at The Steak as punishment for this horrendous act, and the universe returned to its state of perfect balance. However, once reached, balance is tenuous to maintain, and the tomato was reformed, throwing off the balance. The priest's spirit was doomed to follow the tomato until its true end of days, as the priest performed a sacred vegetable resurrection ritual on the tomato, which is a rotten fruit. As the tomatoe suffered through its terrible trials and tribulations, so did the spirit of the heretical priest.

    And yet, through all this, the potato endured, continuously providing sustenance for hard-working folk and serving as a symbol of honesty and constancy.  The tomato soon sprouted good fruit and suddenly started growing into the sky like a certain beanstalk. Wary of the tomato's newfound growth, The Great Spud instructed its followers to maim the tomato. But, in an unfortunate twist of irony, The Great Spud's most ardent followers became hungry as they maimed the tomato and decided to eat it, becoming heretics in the process.

    Ne Crustumini quidem atque Antemnates pro ardore iraque Caeninensium satis se impigre movent; ita per se ipsum nomen Caeninum in agrum Romanum impetum facit. Sed effuse vastantibus fit obvius cum exercitu Romulus levique certamine docet vanam sine viribus iram esse.
