  1. Just a dumb waste of time and food … This is why I'm against all forms of foreign aid. And yes, we do give money to Colombia… so they can have food fights.

  2. This tradition started in Buñol , Spain !
    Bunol's annual Fiesta – La Tomatina
    While there might not seem to be much to do in Buñol, this town comes to life every August when the La Tomatina Festival takes place. This popular festival began by accident on the last Wednesday in August in 1945 during a parade in People's Square. There was a parade taking place with musicians, giants, and large heads, and a few youngsters made one of the participants fall, hitting everything that got in his way. The crowd became angry and began throwing tomatoes that they found on a nearby vegetable stand.

    The tomato throwing continued for a few years until it was banned in the early 1950s. The festival was once again permitted after enough locals and others protested in favor of La Tomatina in 1957 and the La Tomatina Festival has since gained in popularity exponentially. There is now a limit on tickets that are released for this event and is set at a maximum of twenty-two thousand.

  3. With all the skinny starving kids around the world, make watching this video hard to watch without being pissed off.tons of food wasted on pathetic food fight!
