do you like eating tomatoes?

Really? Then that's too bad, as I dislike the taste of tomatoes, so I never eat them. In my case, to keep myself healthy I just follow a balanced way of eating. I try to eat meat, fish, veggies, fruit, rice... instead of junk food all the time. I eat junk food too, but not all the time

Yes I do like tomatoes. I eat them pretty much daily. I can't imagine food without tomatoes. Really, I couldn't.

I love tomatoes! I like them sliced with a little salt on them, or sometimes I make a tomato sandwich which is lightly toasted bread with some mayonnaise, tomato slices and some salt. I love making pasta sauce with tomatoes - either canned, fresh, or sun-dried. Tomatoes have to be on my burgers and my sandwiches and I love bruschetta. Tomatoes are very good for you and I also use lots of garlic and olive oil in my cooking and those are both also good for you and good with tomatoes! Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

Hi Michael-------welcome to myLot!!!!! You are certified one of us now!!!! Well, I like eating tomatoes---thanks for the info. I do not know that, but I love eating fresh tomatoes long before I was a child. Do you know about salted fish???? I do not know if there is a kind there in another country. But if you live here in the Philippines, Specially here in Mindanao, you surely know that. I would slice tomatoes slipping out all the seeds and sliced it mix with salted fish and onions---very delicious!!!

Thanks for sharing such a good piece of information. yes, I do eat tomatoes, this is part of my daily meal and I eat for taste but now I have a very good reason to continue eating tomatoes.

Wow, i had really no idea tomatoes can do that. :) The best way to stay healthy is just to eat regulary, eat well balanced meals, a little bit of excersise and thats it. The most important are the balanced meals/food - vegatables, fruit, meat - it is the diversity that matters. :) Also drinking different tea`s is a good thing: peppermint, lime-tree blooms/blossoms/flowers (i really have no idea which word can be used for it the best in english) etc. Ofc making the tea yourself, not just buying it in the supermarket (ofc if it is somekind of natural products shop or a market or something it might be different).

Eating tomatoes is the best way to avoid sunburn and wrinkles? This is new to me. I know all along that tomatoes is good for complexion but somehow I cannot bring myself to eat it as a fruit though I am a fan of all kinds of fruits.

Hello Michaelyou. I like to eat tomatoes. It is a very healthy food. It is supposed to be eaten every day, especially for men. I read it somewhere on one of the sites which mentions about five top foods for men, of which tomatoes is one. I love to eat any way of it being prepared. I am glad to know about its new uses from your discussion. Thank you for it. Take care.

I wish I'd read this discussion years ago! I have very fair skin and went to college in Florida for four years. I'm from Michigan so I wasn't used to the beaches and concentration of sun there. I burned SO many times while I was in college. (LOL) I didn't know that tomatoes were so good for a person! That makes sense since it is a good fruit, though. I mostly eat them on sandwiches or baby tomatoes in salad. My way was staying healthy in general is to eat balanced meals, get lots of rest, and not over stress myself. I try to stay relaxed and prioritize things correctly so that things get done, but I don't overdo it. I also try to take natural herbs and vitamins to keep my body healthy. I think that is the best way to go. Thanks for the good advice about tomatoes! It goes to show you learn something new every day!

Well Michael, I like tomatoes. Yes, especially the red and very fresh. The tomato is a major vegetable crop that has achieve tremendous popularity over the last century. Tomatoes, aside from being tasty, are very healthy as they are a good source of vitamins A and C. Vitamin A is important for bone growth, cell division and differentiation, for helping in the regulation of immune system and maintaining surface linings of eyes, respiratory, urinary and intestinal tracts. Vitamin C is important in forming collagen, a protein that gives structures to bones, cartilage, muscle and blood vessels. It also helps maintain capillaries, bones and teeth and aids in the absorption of iron. Yes, you are right, Eating tomatoes is the best way to avoid sunburn and wrinkles. A raw tomato has about 20% of the lycopene content found in cooked tomatoes. However, raw or cooked tomatoes are considered the best source for this antioxidant.

Tomato is one of my favorite vegetable and at least i can have a peace for every single day. Happy myLotting!

I like it. You know the tomatos is full of the vitamins. The study shows that eating tomatoes every day will risist disease. And it also can reduce the wrinkles. It is easy for me to keep health. That is keep a good mood and keep the good life attitude.

I hadn't heard that one, however, I have heard tomatoes are very good for you. I try to eat a few here and there. I also heard that they are hard on joints if you have arthritis. So I try to eat a few but not too many because of the acid.

I love eating tomatos. This is something that I didn't really like to do when I was a younger woman, but now that I am older it is something that I really like to eat. I wouldn't say that I like to eat them because of the health benefits of eating tomatos, but rather just because they taste good. As far as one of the best things that I do to stay healthy, it is that I like to drink a lot of water in my daily life.

really, i dont know about that. though i do love tomato and i always add tomato in my salad or soy sauce. i find it so delicious if to be taken with rice during meal. i started to like it when my mother mix chopped tomato in the soy sauce then sometimes she add it together with copped cucumber with salt and vinegar to taste.

Eating tomatoes can help prevent certain cancers because of Lycopene found in cooked tomatoes. Better eat tomatoes now than take cancer chemotherapy in the future. Prevention is better than cure. :)

For some reason, I really don't like tomatoes. Oddly, I absolutely love tomato juice. Strange eh? Tomatoes and tomato juice are super healthy so either consumed is great for your body. I love to stay healthy by eating right, with fruits and vegetables and also working out a lot and running to keep my body fit/in shape.

here in the Philippines tomatoes are in lower price. I bought a lot of tomatoes to eAt to have a rosesy cheeks. which is true tomatoes are good to our health.
