When used, you throw the tomato within an arc in the direction of your cursor, splattering whatever and whoever it collides with. It also possesses a stronger force in throwing compared to other throwables like the UV Glowstick.
If you instead press Q, you will instead eat the tomato, restoring up to 20 effective health.
- Despite being able to eat tomatoes with Q, it doesn't count towards the "Get something to eat!" quest from Pear's Place.
