August 27: Honor the World's Biggest Food Fight this La Tomatina!

Today you can play with your food! The town of Bunol near Valencia, Spain holds a tomato-throwing ceremony on the last Wednesday of August. After a weeklong festival featuring parades, dancing, fireworks, and music, up to 50,000 people gather over-ripe tomatoes and participate in the world's biggest food fight!

While your neighbors are unlikely to appreciate tomato guts and sludge all over your streets, you can commemorate this celebration with tomato recipes. Good cooked, raw, or in sauces, tomatoes offer many options in online food recipes or artistic food photography.  If Spanish cuisine interests you, one night of the La Tomatina festival involves a paella cooking contest. Explore the many forms of this peasant dish by reviewing quick and easy dinner recipes discovered by our Dishfolio food bloggers. There are so many options for enjoying this day; choosing one is the difficult part!
