Tomatoes

[mumandnana]

Hi, could someone give me a weight of tomato that would be considered correct for the one we are allowed a day. I realize we are to eat only one half at a time but with the huge differences in sizes of tomatoes a weight allowance would be very beneficial. I also know we are not allowed the little sweet ones. Thank you.

If it only takes one slice to cover a piece of bread it's too big (more or less). If it takes 4 slices to cover a piece of bread (more or less) then it's too small. So somewhere in between. Or, as was written, a "medium" tomato.

Thank you sundaymorningstaple, that gives me a better idea ( provided I can remember the size of a slice of bread ) I have been choosing ones that are too small.

It still has to be part of the veggie weight though doeesn't it?

within the vege weight, i usually work on enough to cover 2 vitawheats ( dont use them on the vitawheats it is just a convenient measure) often works out to 30-40 grams
