What is the difference between a tomato and a Roma tomato?
Q. The only difference I know is the shape. But, I have a "friend" that claims she gets hives and is allergic to tomatoes.. but she can have roma tomatoes. Are there different ingredients inside or something..?
Asked by princezzameanz - Mon Feb 19 00:07:14 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. All tomatoes in essence are the same the Roma tomato is just a species of tomato like Beefsteak or San Marzano. The Roma tomato is a type of plum tomato. If your friend eats those they should have no problem eating other types the tomatoes should be washed before eating and maybe they should try organic tomatoes maybe it's the chemicals or pesticides that they are allergic too.
