As part of a weekly quest in the Fortnite Simpsons Mini Season, you’ll need to travel distance under the effect of tomatoes.
Previously, tomatoes would just heal you like any other food item, but as of the v38.11 update, the tomatoes have gotten a little funky. All of Springfield island is overflowing with Zero Point energy because of, you guessed it, Homer Simpson, and that includes the tomato field at Cletus’ Corn Hole. Rather than just healing you, the tomatoes will also give you lower gravity.
Here’s where to find tomatoes in Fortnite and the easiest way to travel distance under the effect of tomatoes.
How to travel distance under the effect of tomatoes in Fortnite
Tomatoes can be found inside wooden buckets in the tomato fields at Cletus’ Corn Hole, which is located in the northwestern corner of the map. Tomatoes function a little differently than they did in the past. Instead of eating the tomatoes, you’ll need to throw them on the ground nearby, similar to how you would use a chug splash. This will heal you for 20 health or shield and give you low gravity, which will increase your jump height and negate fall damage.
The easiest way to complete the quest is to utilize the rivers overflowing with Zero Point energy. If you’re in the river, you can use Zero Point Dash, which will make you blink forward if you jump midair. Throw a tomato at your feet, walk into the river, and spam your jump button to quickly travel 500 distance and complete the quest in no time.
