LOVE them? HELL YES!

Nothing better than a raw tomato with salt & pepper.

I'll eat one whole with a salt shaker in the other hand, or in slices or chunks.

/highfive

Hell yeah, Boomer. LOTS of both salt and pepper. Or a TON of one and not the other. If I had raw tomatoes I'd eat them every day and die from sodium overdose.

 

[nageov3t]

sure! I love a slice of tomato with some olive oil, mozzarella, and herbs.

 

[AstroManLuca]

Love 'em. When I use one for a meal I will eat whatever's left. Sometimes I eat them on their own. Either plain or with salt/pepper/olive oil.

 

[TallBill]

Yes, but I voted No.

Raw tomatoes are delicious. I have them in Caprese salad, in a regular salad, on top of my burger / sandwich. I am making a Caprese style crostini tonight as a side dish. Lightly toasted french bread, top with tomato and fresh mozzarella, put in oven just long enough to melt, and top with fresh basil and some evoo. Yum!

Love eating cherry tomatoes as a snack

Yeah, this. What kind of salsa are you eating that doesn't have raw tomatoes in it?

 

[Albatross]

am i the only one salivating right now?

 

[Krazy4Real]

I love raw tomatoes.

 

[x-alki]

Raw is the only way to eat it!

 

[IGBT]

:thumbsup: and stewed too.

I like fresh tomatoes with sugar. Cut one in half add some sugar to both halves, makes a nive snack. I'll have to try out the salt and peppers.

This thread started out so good. The whole first screen doesnt like them, but then you scroll down and all the tomato loving hippies came along.

I enjoy just about every tomato protuct EXCEPT raw tomato.

they can be awesome, or they can be revolting

Lol. I like how the word hippy now includes people who like to eat fresh produce

It's not like people are talking about commune-grown tomatoes.

You just haven't had a good one most likely. The ones you get in the grocery store are devoid of flavor.

Yeah, they are barely good for sandwiches, and not even that sometimes. I didn't particularly like raw tomatoes just like that until I had fresh, homegrown tomatoes.

Well then Ill give them one more shot, because I cannot honestly say that I had a homegrown one. I know there is a night and day difference between home grown strawberries and store bought ones so we will see if the same holds true. The GF wanted to start a garden this year and she has a couple of tomato plants (but I dont know if they are ripe yet).

you don't get out much, do you?

 

[masterxfob]

i like tomatoes however i can get them. however, homegrown and off the vine have much better flavor than those found at supermarkets.

 

[sandorski]

Yes, especially straight off the vine. Which sadly, I haven't had in many years.

Same. A good homegrown tomato is better than a steak.
