Strange But True.

I tell you, I start eating tomatos and I have a hard time stopping. However, the next day I am SO sorry, when those lovely tomatos are done with the processing and I pay for the pleasure of the day before....

I think they are pretty good as well. I love them in salads the best. I have not had one in awhile so yes please send some this way. I do tend to pop chocolate myself but I plan on starting a diet and exercise plan this week so chocalate will only be on a rare occasion. Take care and happy mylotting and happy easter today as well.

Hi Tamara. well this is a change for you! I love cherry tomatoes but have never sat and eaten them all in one go...they are really good for you and reminds me of eating mushrooms and still would if I had some infront of me..they are lovely raw too, hugs littleowl xxx

omg, sorry tamara, i just noticed you may be a little past the childbearing thing. but it is strange how sometimes we really crave things. maybe something we are needing in the diet.

oh yes, i love them. but if its a recent craving, could you be pregnant? i know i never cared for lettuce even on my sandwiches. but, when pregnant with my last son, i could not get enough. all the way home from the store while hubby drove, i was tearing off big hunks of lettuce stuffing my face. it just tasted soooo good. now it has went back to not having any taste to me at all again. very strange,huh?

Hi Tamara, Isn't it nice to find something crisp and refreshing to replace things like candy, chocolate and other not so good for you snacks. I love cherry or whatever little tomatoes as well. It's nice when the smaller fruits come into season also. It's a little messier but that's what licking fingers is for. Once I get out of my cast and I can go grocery shopping again, I'll have to pick up some cherry tomatoes. Thanks for the idea. Don't forget Grapes!!! xoxoxoxo leenie

oh man, now I want some!! lol. I love cherry tomatoes. Maybe it's that spring fever making you want to just keep eating them.or maybe your body is craving something to clean out your system. Sometimes if we're not getting the right amount of nutrition we'll have cravings for it. I've eaten them like that before. I just kept going til the container was gone. Sometimes I'm not paying attention and I'll pop one in my mouth that clearly lived it's life and was now decaying...oh man, there went all the tomatoes i had just eaten. lol. It is alot better than sweets and chips. I like to mix it up a bit w/ cucumbers, carrots or fresh broccoli, that way I will get full quicker and not eat all at once. Just be careful with those little red treats, because alot of acid will cause canquor sores. those are very unpleasant...especially on the tongue. some people can handle high doses, but I can't. I know you said you can't eat peanuts anymore. have you tried sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds. A nutrionist said that a handful of pumpkin seeds will give you a days serving of protein. I think that's neat because I don't eat meat everyday and I can still get my protein with just a handful of seeds.

I like cherry tomatoes but not as much as you do right now. Sometimes I get those packages with the tomatoes, carrots and brocolli and dip. They taste great when you dip it in ranch dressing.

well i'd think it's a message your body is sending you. maybe your body is lacking some vitamins. or maybe your body is craving for water so something moist is good. i always view cravings as some sort of signal from the brain. when our body lack something, we'd develop a craving. seeing how tomatoes are good for health, i see no harm in satisfying this craving.

Funny how our 'cravings' change as we get older. I never used to eat raw carrots, but lately I've been going through them faster than a rabbit could. lol My doc says it's the aging process and the body needing certain nutrients in certain foods and so we develop cravings for things we never would have craved or even eaten before. So I just listen to my body and feed it what it wants! LOL I'll trade you some cherry tomatoes for some carrots................

that is very good to health. y ou should continue with that. i wish that we have that abundantly here. but we have just ordinary tomatoes the big ones.

hello tamarafireheart lol pass me some of those cherry tomatoes. lol i love the cherry tomatoes in tossed salads. that is about all that i have ever used them before is a salad. and btw, with you craving those tomatoes like that?, are you expecting? lol but they say that tomatoes are good for your body thou. so i guess eat all of them that you want to. i love the ripe tomatoes when that they are in season. take care and have a beautiful evening.

Tamara, I love cherry tomatoes too, but I don't pop them as much as you do, I do love them in salad. But, do be careful. Tomatoes of any kind including the cherry type do contain a lot of acid and in time they could cause some stomach problems, so do be careful hon.

My husband loves them also he can eat them like crazy to. I don't see how I don't like them. I am not a big fan of tomatoes but I eat them on sandwich some time and in salad not the cherry ones though.

You mean real cherry tomatoes or candy? If you're eating real ones, be cautious of all the acid you are ingesting. Most of the time I don't snack between meals but do like a cup of coffee in the morning, water or Crystal Light in the afternoon and water in the evening. Once in awhile I'll treat myself to a Pepsi.

to me right now it's the corn chips I drink a lot of water to avoid dry throat but I can't seem to get enough of it I even include it in my meals lol so it'd not only you I feel strange about what happened to me also

it is not strange... cherry tomatoes are tasty ! my only worry is that eating too much of it will cause indigestion or something, but i doubt that will happen.. it's a healthy snack, so.. 'pop away'..

Wow Tamara. Surely not a little bundle of joy on the way? LOL. I love cherry toms too. They are very good for my prostate apparently. XXXX

I have never eaten tomatoes that way. I like them in salads and sliced with vegetables, but never by themselves. However, I do think that is a good and healthy way you are eating them just don't overeat. Enjoy your cherry tomatoes. Good eating. I have a craving for cookies. I don't buy them because they are not good for me.

Well, Tamara. If you were younger, I'd be asking if you could be pregnant too. Then again, it has been known. Oh dear. LOL. Great thing to have a hankering for though. Much healthier than chocolates and Easter eggs and so on. But as others have said, you'd better be careful you don't overdo it. And yes, I do love cherry tomatoes when they are fresh and sweet. But I've never ate more than about four or five at one time.
