I'm no fan of the tomato, either. While my lovely wife enjoys all sorts of tomatoes, and is particularly a fan of organic heirlooms, I just can't get past the texture.
Don't get me wrong - I love ketchup, tomato sauce, and all manner of tomato products, but raw tomatoes will ruin a good dish for me. Tonight, we went to a Peruvian restaurant, and my steak was smothered in cooked onions and tomatoes. I dealt with it... but it was they were unnecessary at best.
Though years of California living have made me love some avocado and bacon on my burger...
