I grew up without a choice as to what I ate. I had to sit at the table until I ate my veggies or whatever it was I didn't want to eat. Today, I'll eat just about anything except that I'm not a fan of raw tomatoes. I like just about any tomato product ever made, but not the raw tomato by itself.


I didn't like fresh tomato until I ate a good Italian bruschetta. The tomato / onion / basil pesto combo converted me.

Even with tomatoes, I'm not that fussy so generally I'll still eat them fresh assuming there other ingredients that change the flavor a bit.

Give bruschetta a go. It worked wonders for me. Tomato and mozzarella salad with pesto is also something special.

I've had bruschetta from time to time, and sometimes I like it, though I prefer more of the olive-based variety.

I'm not a huge olive fan but I have liked some tapenades in the past, and I love olive oil. Go figure.
