The Race

Sent July 25, 2007

A broccoli, a tomato, and a yam were running in a race.

The broccoli got off to a great start, but being a green runner, didn't have the strength to finish the race.

The yam and the tomato were neck and neck for the first stretch, but the tomato quickly fell behind.

The yam was about to reach the end of the track, but collapsed in exhaustion right before the finish line.

Over the course of an hour, the tomato ran the entire length of the race, and won.

Why was the tomato so successful?

The tomato paste itself.
