I Say Pomato, You Say Pomahto is a temporary questline in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It was introduced in the "Diggs" and "The Man Who Grew Too Much" episode tie-in content update.

Dialogue

Pt. 1

After starting the update Ugh, I hate March. There's nothing at the Farmer's Market except fried dough and figurines carved from last year's gourds. Cheer up. "March Madness" is coming, by which I mean my behavior on St. Patrick's Day. Is it so much to ask to have fresh, locally sourced vegetables in the middle of winter? Yes. Yes, I'd say it is so much to ask. Well, I don't care. I'm going to keep loudly and annoyingly demanding what I want until I get it. You are wise in the ways of parental manipulation. I'll go see if Cletus has any of these... uh... what are they called again? Vegetables? Eew! Yeah, those. Task: "Reach Level 6 and Build Cletus's Farm". Task: "Make Homer Visit Cletus's Farm". The job takes place at Cletus's Farm and takes 4 hours. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 2

After tapping on Cletus's exclamation mark Welcome to Spuckler Farms, your source for hubcaps, questionable fireworks from Mexico, and roasted varmint parts. Two possum drumsticks and a squirrel tail for me. Are you growing any fresh vegetables for my daughter? Sorry, but the main thing we farm here is government disability pensions. Every new young'un pretty much guarantees us another couple hunnerd a month. Double if he's got a actual tail. Which they mostly do. Yeah, it's great to be one of America's takers. But no vegetables, huh? Well, now that you mention it, a MYSTERIOUS SCIENTIST done come by last week and give us a big bag of seeds. Said they was a genetically modified hybrid of potatoes and tomatoes that'd grow anywhere, any season, and cut the time to make potato-tomato salad in half! Message You can now grow GMO Pomatoes at Cletus's Farm! Task: "Harvest GMO Pomatoes". Quest reward: 100 and 10

Pt. 3

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark Lisa, I've done something unusual – I've satisfied your request. Here, a bag of farm fresh "pomatoes". Half potato, half tomato, all delicious. Uh, you don't mind if I run them through my "Li'l Forensic Scientist" DNA kit do you? Take your time. I've got a crate of Mexican fireworks and Flanders' lawn ornaments to blow up. I'm set for hours. Task: "Make Lisa Investigate Pomatoes". The job takes place at the Simpson House and takes 24 hours. Task: "Make Homer Pass the Time". The job takes 24 hours. Well, Dad, those pomatoes are totally legit... ...if you ignore the fact that they contain DNA from a combination of at least 15 different mammals, fish and birds! That explains their delightfully horsey aftertaste. We should also check under the sofa and in the closets, because I'm pretty sure I saw one sprout little legs and run away. Still, GMO foods may be the only hope for our generation to survive the messed-up planet your generation is bequeathing us. Bless sweet death for saving me from having to live through your awful future. Message Who's the mysterious scientist responsible for this strange aberration? Which tastes worse, French-fried pomatoes or spaghetti and pomato sauce? Message Find the answers, if you dare, on this Sunday's double episode of The Simpsons, 8/7c on FOX. Quest reward: 200 and 20

Behind the Laughter

The quest's title is a reference to the song Let's Call the Whole Thing Off, and the growing of 'pomatoes' is similar to Tomacco in the episode "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)".
