After landing supporting spots in both Bruschetta and a BLT sandwich, plantoid star Vine of Red has been tapped for the lead role in an upcoming salad dish.
Them Weekly reports the tomatoid will play an organic baby tomato, bursting with juicy sweet flavor.
Details on the production are scarce, but insider reports suggest the plate is based on a long-standing recipe from a well-known cookbook.
The three-week old will join a star-studded plantoid ensemble cast, including household names like Lettuce B and Big Dill.
Vine was clearly unable to contain his excitement at landing the role, tweeting earlier today “feeling blessed!”
Earlier this year Vine spoke to Stars In The Stars about some of the difficulties he has faced in the industry as a tomatoid:
“It’s been hard, I won’t lie. Am I fruit, or a vegetable? However, after many days I realised that I don’t need to conform to a label. All I know is that ketchup isn’t a smoothie, and that’s enough for me.”
The salad is expected to launch across dinner tables later this week, with pre-release snacking available in select fridges.
