The tomato. Such a controversial food, no?
I mean, really – IS IT a fruit? Or is it a vegetable?
My theory? It’s totally a fruit – I definitely eat it like one!
I’m talking : light breakfasts, juicy snacks, or a lil’ sweetness in my salad – YES.
Of course, I adore all fruits ( seriously, fruit is SO good – taste-wise & health-wise! ). But, tomatoes are probably one of the healthiest fruit choices out there.
First off, tomatoes are clearly not as sugary as apples or bananas … Seriously, 1 tomato only has 22 calories. You’d prob be burning more calories from slicing & eating the tomato! Or even just taking a huge bite out of it & trying not to make a mess ( been there, done that ). Negative calorie foods are the SH*T.
But, they also have so much more to offer …
