Dr. John Cook Bennett changed public perception of tomatoes in the 1830s by promoting them as medicine and selling 'tomato pills' that contained little actual tomato.

Tomatoes are part of the nightshade family, which includes bell peppers and eggplants, and can cause gastrointestinal symptoms in those intolerant to alkaloids.

This type of growing involves producing tomatoes with no supplemental water, relying instead on moisture deep in the soil.

This salad beautifully marries the juiciness of ripe tomatoes and mango with the earthiness of beetroot, enhanced by a warm, nutty dressing.
