Famous Death Row Last Meals
Spain has long been famous for the running of the bulls. While the annual hurling of the tomatoes is waaaay less dangerous, it's certainly as frenzied as that Hemingway-sanctioned ritual.What!? You don't mean to tell me that you've never heard of La Tomatina, a festival in Valencia where folks wail on each other with more than 100 tons of tomatoes. Me neither, until today.
This year's food fight took place Wednesday. Legend has it that the ritual started 60 years ago when a scuffle between two groups of youths toppled a tomato stand. Regardless of how it all started some facts are certain: this year more than 110 tons of tomatoes were dumped in the town square and 500 showers were set up to cleanse the revelers. With any luck the town will get the streets clean too.
