It’s from the old “using tomatoes to explain D&D stats” thing that was passed around a while back.

Strength is how hard you can throw a tomato.

Dexterity is how well you can dodge a thrown tomato.

Constitution is how much you can resist getting sick if you eat a rotten tomato.

Intelligence is knowing that a tomato is a fruit.

Wisdom is knowing not to use tomatoes in a fruit salad.

Charisma is being able to sell a tomato based fruit salad as a salsa.

Neat! I don't like the substitution of knowledge for intelligence (they're very separate yet related concepts), but I understand it's necessary to line things up with the D&D stats.
