This looks like my kind of lunch!

The seeds were hard for me to swallow.

 

Fortunately, my grandfather Witherspoon coaxed me on by assuring me that the flavour was mostly  in the seed parts which I wanted to avoid.
Since then I have eaten untold numbers of tomatoes!

 

And they have not only tasted great, they have also helped my health.

Tomatoes are a Functional Food. They go beyond nutrition to preventing chronic disease and to delivering several health benefits.

Yet only 200 years ago they were thought to be poisonous! (They got a bad rap from the family of vines of which they are a part!)

Tomatoes are a rich source of vitamins A & C; Folic Acid & Anti-Oxidants.

They can help ward off cancer, high blood pressure, heart disease and depression.

I had to taste and see that tomatoes are good!

The Psalmist David tells us:
“O taste and see that the Lord is good; how blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him”!
                                                        (Psalm 34:8)

Choose to take your refuge in your God. Taste and see. The benefits to you will be many!
