Project Description
Tomatoes are commonly viewed as vegetables. They are in fact, a beautiful and healthy fruit that comes in an amazing array of colours. The variety of sizes and vibrant colours makes them perfect for making delicious meals look great too! The tomato is a member of the nightshade family which includes eggplant, capsicums and peppers. Whether they are the small red, orange, yellow cherry tomatoes, or the larger red round and roma styles, the combination of sweet, sour and acidic is delicious.
