	4 AmericanDawg2012 days ago Hi @kimi Tomatoes really should be in a class by it'self . Tomatoes are scientifically berry-type fruits they can also be considered a culinary vegetable. Tomatoes are also a member of the deadly nightshade family .The leaves are in fact poisonous, although the fruit is not. In the United States it is the main ingredient in there 2 most popular condiments - Ketchup and Salsa. In the World Tomatoes are number 1 because of it's use in Pizza sauce and Spaghetti or Marinara Sauce. The most unusual use is for the " La Tomatina Festival " Held in Spain .
