Oh, wow. I am SO going to start eating more tamotoes and watermelon. But I think the watermelon part won't be TOO hard to do. ;D

I just found a use for the juice in canned fruit, I'm adding it to my water. The Tropical Fruit is the best.

Hi Jack – I’m also a huge fan of tomato jam! I included a recipe in this week’s Market Watch.

Thanks for all the advice, another delicious way of eating tomatoes is tomato jam, my mother raised eight kids in Africa and our breakfast was often tomato jam on toast, I make it myself and it is by far better than a few I managed to find in some Country stores, not found in the City Supermarkets.

I saw something somewhere that said that people who ate a lot of lycopene (from tomato paste) recieved less sun damage than people who didn't eat much lycopene. Very interesting…

Good stuff! I never realized lycopene was beneficial in SO many ways! Hooray for more delicious tomatoes
