Yes.
Years ago, one hot summer, I was temping at a water works office - very dull filing and shit like that. Outside the window was a flat piece of ground with a multitude of tomato plants growing, fruit ripening on the ground (they obviously weren't tied up on stakes), glistening in the balmy sunshine.

I asked why someone would plant them there, and was told no-one had - they'd just had a sewage overflow earlier in the year onto that ground and even after it had been ruthlessly cleaned, a lot of undigested tomato pips managed to germinate and grow.

And no, I never tried one. I don't like tomatoes.
