m (→‎Origin: Even knowing the mechanics of Smash, phrasing it as “fifty percent of a player’s health” sounds like it could mean it restores their health by half, so I think changing health to damage communicates its effect more clearly)

Maxim Tomatoes made their first appearance in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. They completely restore Kirby's health. Maxim Tomatoes have appeared in numerous ''Kirby'' games since, and usually function identically to their first appearance. In the ''Super Smash Bros.'' games, Maxim Tomatoes only restore fifty percent of a player's health rather than fully restoring it. The design of the Maxim Tomato has also been retained from ''Kirby's Dream Land''. The Maxim Tomato is a small red tomato, with a noticeable black and white M on the front.

“ This tasty veggie recovers up to 100% on your Damage Meter. ”
—Super Smash Bros. instruction booklet description

The Maxim Tomato (マキシムトマト, Maxim Tomato), sometimes known as a Tomato, is a healing item (a red tomato with a black "M" in the center) first introduced in the Kirby series, which reduces the damage percentage of the player who picks it up. It is often misnamed "Maximum Tomato" or "Tomato".

Origin[edit]

Kirby finds a Maxim Tomato in Kirby's Adventure.

Maxim Tomatoes made their first appearance in Kirby's Dream Land. They completely restore Kirby's health. Maxim Tomatoes have appeared in numerous Kirby games since, and usually function identically to their first appearance. In the Super Smash Bros. games, with the exception of the original game, Maxim Tomatoes only restore fifty percent of a player's damage rather than fully restoring it. The design of the Maxim Tomato has also been retained from Kirby's Dream Land. The Maxim Tomato is a small red tomato, with a noticeable black and white M on the front.

In Super Smash Bros.[edit]

Sprite
Artwork of Maxim Tomato in SSB.

In Super Smash Bros., the Maxim Tomato restores 100% from a character's damage percentage. In SSB, any damage the character takes is ignored while healing.

In Super Smash Bros. consuming at least two or three Maxim Tomatoes in a match (respectively) gives the player the Vegetarian bonus, worth 9,000 points in SSB (5,000 points in the Japanese version of SSB) and 1,800 points in Melee.

Maxim Tomatoes don't spawn on Hyrule Castle. If all items aside from the Maxim Tomato are turned off, then any containers that fall onto the stage will be empty.

In Super Smash Bros. Melee[edit]

A Maxim Tomato in Melee.

Beginning in Super Smash Bros. Melee, the Maxim Tomato heals 50% from a character's damage percentage, with Heart Containers taking the previous function of healing 100% damage. Also beginning in Melee, damage taken while healing will be subtracted from the amount healed by the tomato. For example, if an attack does 10% damage, the tomato will "absorb" it into its 50% recovery, and the user only recovers 40% damage.

Trophy[edit]

Maxim Tomatoes cure 50 percentage points of your accumulated damage. Once you eat one, after a brief moment, your damage meter slowly drains the appropriate amount, regardless of whether or not you pick up another item right afterwards. In the Kirby series, these juicy, health-restoring items were a favorite of the pink hero.
