"Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for life."
Honestly, Nay sayers of this festival, if your so worked up about starving third world people then you stop giving recklessly and start looking up ways to help teach under developed countries on how to farm correctly so that the soil doesn't loose it's moister and create desertification instead of complaining about it here because it's not doing anything to help.
send these tomatoes to Africa and all you'll see is dictators and the majority factions in power eat a shit load of tomatoes. Starvation in 3rd world nations has many causes and surprisingly lack of food ain't high on the list
In Africa children starve to death every 3rd second 24/7-365 Not that it will help to post it but it just make me not understand how to enjoy this festival. Everybody is allowed to celebrate but please throw something fucking else then food! Its the principle of it
its a celebration of peoples hard work through the harvest and for the people of spain to have a bit of fun, the tomatos they used for this would probs aid 1% of the starving people in the third world (if that). lets them have a bit of fun jesus
@MegaAlex606 800 000 000 (23 mill children) are starving everyday worl wide so if you know your math 1 % was suddently alot more then you think aint it? God bless both you and them
@DeadlyShuriken11 agree bro. The tomatoes are grown specifically for the event. produced in the cheapest possible way so they taste like shit. So stop your moaning and do something about the problem
@DeadlyShuriken11 agree bro. The tomatoes are grown specifically for the event. produced in the cheapest possible way so they taste like shit. So stop your moaning and do something about the problem
is this what u call festival? well then it disgusts me. poor children in many parts of africa,india etc r dying. they r fighting for just 2 mouthfuls of food to eat n these people r wasting tomatoes for their own selfish fun.
@Akasha987 Settle down! If it had been plastic tomato's you wouldn't have cared! Yet they would cost more to make and the money spent would've been able to feed many more starving people!! Why don't you protest every-time you by car instead of donating it too the 3rd world, or every time a Government spends money on upgrading a new road?! Same thing.
@DeadlyShuriken11 how can someone be jelous are you sick people are starving around the world and all you care about is thrown food on each other look around the world and see where kids starving to death trying to find something to eat.
so you want to feed the third world with rotten tomatoes? what a great soul... whats next, giving them the e-coli cucumbers we dont want in the first world?
Why do Spanish people get all the really awesome festivals ?!?!?

I think Buñol has more tomatoes than the people there can eat and it's a festival! Anyone is free to participate.

I've always wanted to go to Spain for the tomato fight, the running of the bulls, and to pay my respects to Generalissimo Franco.

@Akasha987 apparently you missed the part where they said rotten. So if we sent them then we'd be killing all of the starving children. Get a life.
