I remember as a toddler adults pulling a "you like ketchup, so why dont you like tomatoes?" On kids who didnt like tomatoes. Like.. okay, drink some vinegar then, throw some sodium bicarbonate on your pasta.

Same. I can't do raw fresh tomatoes but I am fine with salsa,, marinara, etc.

my theory is that kids that dont like veggies is because their parents didnt season their vegetables.

I still hate tomatoes and you'll never convince me otherwise

I recently made this discovery myself. Turns out, if you add flavor to them, they're not bad.

I've always been okay on tomatoes. Found out I fucking love a tomato if it's a good tomato. Home garden is best but it is one of the veggies that is worth paying for the better version. A lot of stuff it doesnt make a difference if you get the expensive organic version, onions is onions for example. Tomatoes are a strong exception. Low quality tomatoes are for salsa and lesser sandwiches. Good tomatoes are for eating raw and really good sandwiches where you buy nice bread

Caprese salad (if you aren't vegan)

There was a brief period in my youth where my mother would just buy a shitload of cherry tomatoes. No idea why. School lunch? Yeah there's a bunch of cherry tomatoes. Feeling peckish? Cherry tomatoes. Breakfast? For some reason, cherry tomatoes.

Lasted 2 months then she never bought them again.

There must already be a squeeze machine for those who can't. Like a dull set of scissors thing. Cause I could see that being a pain. I've always worked kitchens and had noticed really early on that it's basically impossible to do with just about any disability. Which is gatekeeping an industry of brutal work for next to no pay, but at the same time that makes it an entire industry that will not hire based on physical disabilities, and in addition made me really aware of how fucking hard cooking would be for anyone with limited use of just about any body part, even at home. Also I found out how much some of these gadgets that are made originally for people with disabilities can really reduce the physical strain of doing an industrial amount of something. The slap chop is a secret godsend for professional kitchens that I have gotten to introduce. It's cheaper and more precise and easier to clean than a food processor and while less precise, its less strenuous than a knife. So if you wanna dice a fuckload of onions for a mornay sauce as an example, you can cut that time in half with a slap chop. I wish they made bigger ones so I could fit a fuckload of veg in their. For easy rough chopping and dining where presentation wont matter, it is great! Fantastic product that should be in every restaurant

I live in a country with frozen oreo pizzas and mustardayonnaise so my ability to detect normal human food is a little warped ok

I fell for it, because it sur as shit looks like a real products americans would consume.

Unfortunately, I think it was real. It's from a shark-tank thing, but I think they closed down.

I will fully respect you not liking and not eating tomatoes so long as you don't eat whatever the fuck this thing is
