"Tomotto" is clearly an inferior way of saying Tomato. If I met someone who said "Tomotto", my first reaction wouldn't be "It's okay that you say it like that. We're all equals." I would punch them in the face and kick them on the ground until they pronounced it correctly. Then I'd force them to eat a tomato.

Of course, I could be looking at this all wrong. A "Tomotto" could be an entirely different fruit that just happens to look and taste exactly like a Tomato. You know that whole "Is a Tomato a fruit or vegetable" debate? Maybe this is where the confusion comes from. Maybe a Tomato is a fruit and a "Tomotto" is a vegetable.
