Except I’m allergic thanks to the pesticides used here.
Im sorry to hear that. Even on organic tomatoes?
Organic farmers use pesticides.
Yup. Something in there reactivates my allergy.
Interesting, so is this just for domestic tomatoes or are there other veggies/fruit that you are allergic to?
Are all foreign tomatoes “safe” or are there other countries that use the same type of pesticides?
Its Roundup. If you’re consuming stuff treated with Roundup you could end up with a contact allergy or cancer.
