Tomatoes, peppers and avocados all came from Mexico, too. The Spanish took seeds back to Spain and started to grow the plants there. Soon they spread (распространились) to other countries in Europe and then to other parts of the world . The words tomato, chocolate and avocado all come from the old Aztec language.
