I have an italian mate who doesn't like fresh tomatoes but loves pureed tomatoes (for sauce). Strange lad.

I am in the same camp as Mr. shorts, I detest tomato.
And yes Ben, it is an incredibly awkward food not to like. I have to choose which pizza place I am ordering from according to how much tomato puree they use and interrogate a waiter in a restaurant as to how much tomato they put in their lasagne (and I love lasagne). If the restaurant can't cook me up a lasagne with little or no tomato then I have to order something else.
Oh, and the smell of tinned tomatoes on toast (one of my uncles favourites) literally makes me wretch.
I prefer cheese.

I'm going to start the Tomato Nationalist Party.
Anyone who badmouths tomatoes will be labelled a tomatoist and will receive the wrath of all those who think that this peculiar half fruit/half vegetable is the rightful occupant of a salad bowl.
Uniforms and armbands coming soon.

I don't like fresh tomatoes, but will happily cook with them.

Oh don't come all fucking righhteous you tomato loving bastard. Just because I don't like tomaotes does not make me a card carrying blackshirt. Just because they all look the fucking same does not mean I'm tomatoist. Just because I hate them all does not make me tomoatoist. If you're on the side of tomatoes then you sir are a Grade A cunt and I will hound you off of this board and shout you down at every opportunity. |

I don't suppose the offer of a bevy of sweet young cherry tomatoes for a night would make you reconsider your position would it? |

They don't "all look the same" you bigot, you can get green ones and yellow ones, and they're all different sizes from cherry tom's to Beefsteak tom's, and different shapes. Mind you don't ask me to eat a raw one or I'll puke. Theres somehting about the texture I can't stand. Fine cooked in stuff though. |

So are potatoes, I believe... And tomatoes are a very good anti-cancer food (lycopene if I remember rightly). A lot of the people I know who have a problem with tomatoes say it's the seeds they don't like, although how this translated into a hatred of tomato puree and ketchup I'm not sure. Just one of those things I guess! I think all tomato-based things are yummy, personally. |

The devil's spawn may come in many guises to try and fool you but they're all the same underneath. Vile, disgusting things that will kill you if you eat one and will leave you partly paralysed if you even eat a mouthful. . |

Im the same, any kind of tomato puree or sauce is not a problem. In fact is beautiful for pizzas and most Italian cooking. Its the texture of fresh toamatoes that i dislike. The snotty middle bit is like when you havea bad cold and you accidently cough up a slimey green phlem ball. |
