During my days as a civil engineering student many years ago we were taken on a field trip to the local sewage treatment works (exciting I know)
on the site there were stacks of enormous tomato plants growing wild everywhere - the explanation from the plant engineer was that tomato seeds are one of the things that the human body cant breakdown so the seed remain in the human poo sediment and then were dispersed on the wind and allowed to grow wild on the site feeding off the effluent.

ok interesting I thought (not) until on the way out I saw a couple of local stalls at the entrance gate flogging these 'organic' tomatoes - told my kids about these tomatoes that had already passed through someone's body and then grown in human shit

To this day both of them refuse point blank to eat tomatoes

Stephen Gerrard was advised to give up tomatoes when he was getting numerous hamstring strains.

Sure it wasn’t touching his toes?

You can get very good tinned Italian tomatoes. Morrisons sell Mutti which are very good. Tesco also sell fresh San Marzano which although grown in Holland(not Italy) are pretty good, especially if you salt them after you have cut them in half for 15 mins then give them a quick rinse.
