TikTok strikes again: tomatoes on bridges (wait, what?)

A bridge in Ireland has been completely covered with tomatoes. Originally, a few became stuck to the stonework by the recent freezing conditions. But once word spread, people started leaving their own additions.

The bridge has become one of Dublin's hottest tourist attractions after a viral video, Dublin City Council is urging people visiting the "cherry tomato bridge" to stop wasting food.

The first tomatoes have also been spotted on a bridge in New York. Based on videos circulating on social media, Dutch tv-channel Jeugdjournaal (news for youth) cautiously observes a potential trend emerging, especially after the videos were shared widely on TikTok.

Last year, a TikTok hype caused a spike in cucumber sales. Could tomato growers be in luck this time?
