Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I know of several people who have an allergy to tomatoes. They are very acidic. Maybe that's the reason. It's a vegan friendly condiment. Donna Whoa!

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Can't help but tell you that when my daughter was little, she didn't like cooked tomatoes. She said she was allergic to them, but only when they are cooked. LOL!

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hahaha I have heard this in the opposite direction. My younger nephew would cover everything with ketchup but would say he was allergic to sliced tomatoes.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hope he got over it. My daughter is still a picky eater as are her children. She also avoids cooking. Frozen veggies in a pot is her idea of cooking. My sons do better in the kitchen. Go figure? My youngest son says that I never gave him any ethnic foods when he was little. He would 't eat them! Now he eats very well and loves Indian, Mexican, Ethiopian, Thai, and other foods. None of them are vegetarians. I wasn't either until my husband had a heart attack. Then I got to the point that if I ever saw another chicken breast I would scream! I started eating vegetarian, and, amazingly, he did too - at home at least. When he went out he was careful but did eat chicken, turkey, and pork tenderloin. Since he is gone, I eat very simply when I'm alone. I especially love greens with onions and garlic sauteed in a little olive oil. And sweet potatoes, SIGH - so good. Diana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 My dad can not eat raw tomatoes but cooked are fine. It took him a while to figure it out. Not only do raw tomatoes affect his rheumatoid arthritis, but they also give him heart palpitations. Cooking them even a little changes them enough where he can eat them.

Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have the same issue with tomatoes. I'm flat out allergic to them, but I can handle them fresh and raw better than cooked as long as I don't overdo it. There for a while I couldn't handle cooked at all without breaking out in hives and all kinds of other nasty symptoms. The worst symptom I've ever gotten from raw is my tongue breaking out. Cooking them does change something about them when you have allergies. Michelle in Virginia On Wed, Nov 26, 2008 at 6:11 AM, <glpveg4life wrote: > My dad can not eat raw tomatoes but cooked are fine.

Cooking them even a little changes them enough where he can eat them. ********** I wonder why that is? Could it be the nicotine in the tomatoes? No, really, they do have it! Tomatoes, eggplants, potatoes and peppers are all among the plants of the nightshade family--same as tobacco, and they all contain varying amounts of this chemical. It's not a lot, of course, but I have joked a few times with my smoking friends (I don't smoke) that, if they wanted to quit, instead of " wearing the patch " or chewing the gum, if they wanted to quit, maybe they could load up on a stew of eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes and peppers. I don't think the smokers have ever taken me up on that, but I've eaten some really good stuff with those ingredients...and it's kind of addictive! LOL! The BEST " nicotine coctail " stew (that's what I call it) was a thick concoction, all-vegan, that was ladled over some pasta at the RED HERRING in Urbana, IL.., on the U. of I. campus. It's only open for noon (except Monday evenings) and it's literally a hole-in-the-wall sort of place (in the basement--via the back stairs!). Good food, and I highly recommend it, anyway--all vegetarian, usually vegan.. As for tomatoes...I also have a friend who says they " tear up her insides " . My DH won't eat raw or cooked--unless they are pureed and he can't " see " the shape of them. He picks out the " chunks " of a chunky salsa or spaghetti sauce! Laura B., PS: I live in Illinois, but the BEST tomatoes come from Indiana, where I grew up! My mom is from the town that is now the headquarters and main canning plant for " Red Gold " brand tomato products. Mom, at 79, always still cans her own " home grown " tomatoes and refuses to buy " store-bought " ones! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Fresh tomatoes will sometimes give me canker sores. A little sugar on them cuts the acid. Oranges occasionally do the same thing, for some reason orange juice is the worst! Sometimes it doesn't matter what I eat, I get them anyway -- stress. Audrey S.
