I'd like to choose Option C:

The tomato is native to places like Peru and Ecuador, and eventually was moved to [what is now known as] Mexico as we kept bringing it further north.

The tomato is Ohio's state fruit[1], but it does not belong in Ohio. The only reason we have tomatoes growing in Ohio is humans; nature has nothing to do with it. They wouldn't be here without people dilly-whacking with things.

(And I'm glad they did so. Tomatoes are delicious.)

[1]: Seems weird but it be that way anyhow. Ohio also has a native state fruit, which is the paw paw.
