The "Ace Tomato Company" is most likely a reference to United Fruit (now Chiquita Bananas), a company widely known to have been involved with the C.I.A. in the 1950s. The connection is subtly underlined, with the name of one of the Generals, Miegs. One Henry Meiggs, an American business magnate, operating in South America, was the uncle of one of the founders of what would become United Fruit.
