Hi everyone Tomatoes are one of my favorite vegetable and the most important ingredent of my foods. I'm sure its same for many of you all but from now we can use tomatoes not only as our food ingredent but also as a skin care ingredent. Some of the main benefits of tomatoes are like,eating a raw tomatoe can help us to loose our tummy fat as well as it prevents us from tanning (to use tomatoe as a sunblock we have to make tomatoe into half or more pieces and then have to rub tomatoe on our face and other body parts exposed to sun after cuming from out.) It was great to discuss tomatoe's facts.Even I welcome you all to share your ideas regarding the benefits of tomatoes so that we all can gain some information about our favourite vegetable :)

I have never heard about using tomatoes as sunblock but it did really interest me. One thing that I definitely know about tomatoes is that I LOVE THEM! My dad always grows the best tasting tomatoes! Makes me wish I had one right now!

I also like tomatoes! :) They're good for the skin but I haven't heard of its other uses until now. That's interesting. Almost all the dishes that I am learning how to cook needs sautéing tomatoes. The thing is my kid siblings are not too crazy to eat it. I even have to hide it in the food sometimes, lol!
