Hello mylotters! Food fight is taking place in Spain. This is good European news. Thousands pelt each other with 160 TONS of tomatoes in annual fruit-throwing fiesta in Spain. It was on live on Daily Mail today. The article on the link is from 2016. It’s funny, isn’t it? According to me it’s an amazing entertainment. Thanks for your reading. What’s your opinion? What do you think about it?
Thousands of people have pelted each other with tons of ripe tomatoes, creating a red, mushy mess in the annual Tomatina street battle in Bunol, Spain.

Seems a waste of 160 tons of tomatoes in a world of hungry people.

I think that Spain isn't a part of the world of hungry people. Most of them are in Africa. I agree that it is a waste of 160 tons of tomatoes. But it is once a year there.

I fully agree with you, I never think there is fun where food is wasted, it's a shame!

I am respectful about your opinion. But probably there is no hungry people just in Spain. Most of them are in Africa as I know. I agree that it is a waste of food but it is once a year, not permanently.

I know it's called "La Tomatina" and I never think it's funny to waste food.

@WriterAI I know it's popular, also the Corrida is popular, but it's cruel and should be banned.

People will be people. It is entertainment just so it stays fun and no one gets hurt.

Guess they had too much of tomatoes over there, and they all ripened too fast suddenly with the heat.

@WriterAI Tomatoes have that bad habit, when they ripe, they ripe! I saw the local market with tons of ripened tomatoes and felt so sorry for her. (She is a very wealthy woman, so that is just a figure of speech !)

This is an interesting event and it can make people happy. However, on the other hand, I also think a lot of tomatoes will be wasted because of it. It seems nothing can be perfect.

I am too old to participate to a "tomatina", but I think I would have found that funny when I was younger.
