[King Belieal]

I don't eat tomatoes as a fruit. I eat them as a vegetable. They are always major components of my fried foods. It is only few times that I have had to eat tomatoes raw as a fruit.

I love raw tomatoes and has been eating them as fruits since my younger days. I remember, how mom would buy a kg of tomatoes and about half of that she would cut lengthwise and serve in a platter and within minutes, the plate would be empty! We all love tomatoes and we eat them on daily basis as both fruit and vegetable.

I eat tomatoes a lot. It's a wonderful fruit and it's packed with various nutrients like potassium, vitamin A and vitamin B complex. I enjoy tomatoes more in salad and sandwiches. I even enjoyed it as snacks.

Yes I do. I use tomatoes in my savory dishes and salads, similar to how vegetables are used. This is more of a culinary and cultural convention rather than a scientific one.

I hate tomatoes. Infact, when I have any food including burgers, I ask the kitchen to specifically not use wholesome tomato and use tomato paste or tomato ketchup instead.

Another reason is that tomato has a lot of oxalates which is responsible for kidney stones. My family has a history of kidney stones, so I generally stay away from that.

No, i do not eat tomatoes as a fruit. There is one of my friend who eats it as a fruit and i tried doing so too but i regretted it because i hated the taste of the raw tomatoes. I eat tomatoes as a vegetable.
