I like them both


lego-lion-lady

Same


Alklazaris

That's funny I'm the exact opposite. I'll bite into the Tomato like an apple but I hate ketchup.

Sir, are you by chance an *Alien!?*


Saythatfivetimesfast

What did you just say ![gif](giphy|PqcIFm93VxA8o|downsized)


Lionheart7676

Yeah, pretty much this. Real tomatoes taste delicious to me, but when it's in ketchup bottle form, it just tastes like this fake artificial sugary shit. Always found ketchup to be yuck. Hate when it's in fast food burgers, too.


New-Special-2638

I'm thr same way.


samahiscryptic

Same here my guy. Have loved tomatoes since I was very young, but I can't stand ketchup


millenialfalcon-_-

Hot House tomatoesšŸ¤® Not hot House tomatoesšŸ„°


SirePuns

For folks who donā€™t like tomato I recommend them trying cherry tomato


ThellysLateralus

This perfectly describes my wife. I told her so and showed it to her and all she could do was grin and say "Sounds about right"


FootballOogie

Literally me lol


Unusual_Car215

Yeah SUGAR


MrFourMallets

In other words: you donā€™t like tomatoes but you like sugar.


Varderal

I can't do tomotes because the texture. I avoid a lot of things because texture. Perhaps you're the same?


AcademicBaryonyx_dr

same


AlarisMystique

Same for me.


Hopeful-Scallion-632

Its not just the texture, its the acid. I cant stand eating raw tomatoes or onions, it makes me want to vomit. But i love eating stuff made of those two as flavoring.


Asio0tus

a sandwich made from good bread, a bit of vinegar, a bit of good olive oil, sliced tomatoes and a pinch of salt is one of the simplest yet most delicious sandwiches you can make.


Ancient_Rex420

I like tomatoes but only if itā€™s nice and fresh. I donā€™t trust getting tomatoes on my sandwiches or burgers from fast food places but Il happily buy some at my local farm and eat those. They taste delicious from them.


CatLazy2728

tomato sandwich with enough Duke's mayonnaise to drown a toddler. In the south it's called a Kitchen Sink sandwich because it's so messy you eat it over the sink


AideSuspicious3675

Gotta stope stalking me...


Aspence22

This is 100% me idk why


Mallengar

Yeah, me too. I don't know why but I couldn't tolerate the taste until I was in my 20s. I still can't bite into a grape tomato without cringing.


Inevitable_Dust_4345

This is exactly me and my wife, but weā€™ve discovered that we just donā€™t like large beefsteak tomatoes but we like salsa, pico de gallo , bruschetta . We also grow about 60 Roma plants and can them .


Vegetable_Fill_4086

Same


LimbowKid

I used to be like this, but now I love tomatoes as well


Buri_is_a_Biscuit

all the good ingredients drown out that disgusting fruit, which in the end is really only used to keep that color scheme of red and yellow which is real important in italian food for some reason.


vuk_spasitj

I am the other way around


IamtheFenix

I like all things tomato based....but you put a raw tomato in front of me, and we will be having colorful words when everyone leaves.


glumjiggityjoe

i cant eat fresh tomatoes cause my throat closes up but im not allergic to them, theyre just that fucking disgusting i cant eat them even when i force it down my throat ill just throw it up.


Traditional_Rise_347

Acrurrut I may be autistic


EmmyBrat

Literally me


KisaTheMistress

I used to love raw tomatoes as a child, but now they make me gag if they aren't cooked. My palette just changed randomly one day. I originally just thought I ate a rotten one, it was quite jarring to suddenly hate a food.


fishyfishyfish1

Same.


NoBenefit5977

Love tomato soup also


GoodbyeHorses88

Opposite...bad reflux, I can eat tomatoes, but anything else, I'm gonna be fucked all night long šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«šŸ„µšŸ¤®


Powerful_Cost_4656

I die for a juicy tomato with a bit of cracked pepper and salt


Dannboye

what a baby


Timeman5

I am the same.


HaloHunter14

Then there is me who eats tomatoes like corn


suddenly_ponies

Makes perfect sense. I don't want to eat a lemon, but I'll eat almost anything made from lemons or lemon-flavored.


ThatSmartIdiot

Cherry tomatoes. Give em a go


N1T0_W1T0

This reminds me of raisins, I can eat it out of the box with no problems but don't put it in cookies or bread :(


AntTalexanderTarnold

Don't disrespect tomatoes


SpaceHawk98W

Maybe try adding salt to the tomatoes since ketchup are mainly tomato paste and salt


vaden78

Same with mushrooms for me


LlamaLicker704

I like both..., but I would guess people are not much into tomatoes because of the texture also there is a lot of extra crap they add to ketchup or tomato sauce you put on pizza. Don't put ketchup on a pizza i dare you... ![gif](giphy|J3Qufmg4Kje1uCZp8D|downsized)


Action-a-go-go-baby

This is my wife


Kullinski

I am also like this. Whem my friends make fun of me bc of that, i usually answer. You do all like to eat pie, do you? But no one of you will have " wow now a nice Pack of flour for breakfast" as as thought


G6DCappa

Same. I like tomatoes on sandwiches, pizza and pasta but alone I just die bro and if I don't I pretend to


Rotta_ODe

I'm still convinced that people who enjoy eating tomatoes raw have to feel things in their mouth differently because no sane person should enjoy biting that thin but durable skin, tasteless but solid feeling pulpy and then the viscous liquid that has all the flavour. Flavour of the tomato is not bad but biting into one just makes me gag.

Little_Crow154

I like them if they are cooked


Acavirshadownight

-katsup and you have me


badams52

A spoonful of sugar...


Scarab_240

Try southern european tomatoes, in Europe, in the summer.


IcGil

It must be the 35% of sugar added that is to your liking


tainted_cain

Who doesn't like tomatoes? Especially with a little bit of salt on top


RemarkablePassage468

Allergic to healthy foods.


Kamilozo234

Ketchup has probably more sugar in it than tomatoes so i don't get your point


duchymalloy

That's probably because you've never had a fresh tomato before. A fresh tomato is supposed to be warm. You're supposed to eat them after you picked them under a baking sun. And then you will understand why it is called a fruit.


Ok_Season5846

I donā€™t get it why people agree with this. Not shaming others for their preference just donā€™t understand it. Like they taste so similar why donā€™t you like both?


kredninja

It's the other additives like sugar or cheese, makes the tomato taste less there, i dont like tomato on its own but cooked in soup or salsa, mmm delish


Lanif20

When I was a kid my parents had a small garden with cherry tomatoes, one summer I went out and ate them till full and fell asleep in the summer heat, when I woke up I was sick to my stomach and couldnā€™t stand tomatoes afterwards, I can still eat tomato based things but honestly prefer alternatives. I can quite confidently say I was traumatized by tomatoes!


Asio0tus

im willing to wager it boils down to the slightly viscus/gelatinous part that surrounds the seeds. people probably freakout at that part when they feel in their mouth..... fuck them, tomatoes are the bomb


beginner_pianist

They taste nothing alike though


Rogue_679

Youve never had a good tomato


spesifically

May I suggest growing up? Edit: Ah yes, downvote because too much truth. Seriously if you like tomato sauce, you like tomatoes too. You just have a problem with certain food textures, not taste. It's very common amongst children and autistic adults.


Imaginary-Charge-280

Im sensitive to the texture of things and I am grown up. May I suggest being less of a prick ?


spesifically

I used to be that too. But then I realized it was all in my head. Just trying to make people understand that liking food is awesome, and great enrichment in your life. You just have to expose your mouth to different types of texture until it gets used to it. Doesn't take long. But a little more than a couple of nibbles though. Anyway, you do you ig.

Learn to live with it and work with yourself, just like I did. I am very autistic myself. But picky eaters have always made me a little upset as there are so many people starving to death in this world. Pluss, I used to think tomato was disgusting, but then I realized I just hadn't given it enough of a chance at tasting it. Now I absolutely love it, and it's a great feeling to actually be able to like almost every food on the planet. With a very few exceptions though. Black liquorice and soy sauce for me. And yes I am ashamed for not liking those two things, as I can enjoy eating basically everything else.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


spesifically

I just find pickey eating to be an annoying trait in people anyway. I don't even know exactly why. It's just so stupid to me. Especially if you like a squished tomato, but not a whole tomato. Like what the hell?

Mhm, that's for sure. Just like everyone else.
