Tomatoes are from the Americas, some people in Europe thought they were poisonous shortly after their introduction to Europe, others even thought they were an aphrodisiac. What I would like to know is what was southern Italian cuisine like before the introduction of the tomato?

Ox tail in Europe, and some perennial favorites in America, such as corn and squash.
