Influencer calls whole tomato at Las Vegas restaurant iconic while others are deeply confused: So dystopian

Influencers need to ketchup with the times.A woman took great pleasure in being served a whole tomato and lemon in place of a bread basket at a restaurant, and now “influencer culture” is being roasted on social media.“OK, so we’re at LPM in Vegas and they give out tomatoes and lemon as your little bread at the table,” Cassidy Miller said in a TikTok video.“Which is great for me because I’m gluten-free, so this is, like, iconic.”The New Jersey resident then filmed as she sliced a piece of the tomato, squeezed the lemon on it, then topped it with olive oil, salt and pepper.As she took a bite into the tomato served at the French Mediterranean restaurant, her eyes widened in euphoria.“Wow.
