Bacon is meat candy.

[Strangler Lewis]

I love tomatoes, raw and cooked. I have snacked on cans of tomato paste and squeezed tubes of it onto my finger for a snack. I prefer good raw tomatoes to pallid bad ones. The only time I like a bad tomato is at a pizzeria where they give you a side salad with ice berg lettuce, a bad tomato, a slice of salami, some pepperoncini, a little oil and vinegar and a lot of salt. Somehow that works.

Some raw tomatoes have too much wet seed bits that are properly cut away. Dry farm tomatoes minimize this and have more intense tomatoey flavor.

If I were to live by the Cooking for Your Blood Type recommendations, I would swear off tomatoes, as well as most of the foods I enjoy.

I use lime in guacamole, not lemon.
