Little verified information is available about where the Wet Dream Tomato clip first appeared, and it circulates mainly as a niche soundboard sound rather than a widely documented meme. Its tags point to a playful, New York flavoured internet in-joke, but without a confirmed source the appeal is best understood through its use: creators pick it up precisely because it is obscure, random and instantly recognisable to people who have heard it before. That obscurity helps it survive, since it still feels like a private joke when it appears in a new edit.
