From Wikipedia:  In the Simpsons’ episode, the tomacco was accidentally created by Homer Simpson when he "planted a little bit of everything" and fertilized his tomato and tobacco fields with plutonium.  The result is a tomato that apparently has a dried, gray tobacco center, and, although being described as tasting terrible by many characters, is also immediately and powerfully addictive.

Homer was able to mix genetic engineering and irradiation into one plant….Monsanto must have a bunch of Simpson’s fans working for it.
