The TomTato: tomatoes and potatoes in just one plant

Have you ever seen anything like this? A plant which is half a tomato plant and half a potato one! The TomTato can grow more than 500 sweet cherry tomatoes while producing white potatoes. The plants can be grown either outside or inside, as long as they are in a large pot or bag. The hybrid plants were individually hand-crafted and not a product of genetic engineering. 

Well, now you can make a salad with just one plant... :)
