Tomato - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Tomatoes are one of the most common garden vegetables in the United States, and, along with zucchini, have a reputation for outproducing the needs of the grower. |
 | | "Slicing" or "globe" tomatoes are the usual tomatoes of commerce; beefsteak tomatoes are large tomatoes often used for sandwiches and similar applications; plum tomatoes or paste tomatoes are bred with a higher solid content for use in tomato sauce and paste; and cherry tomatoes are small, often sweet tomatoes generally eaten whole in salads. |
 | | Tomatoes are often grown in greenhouses in cooler climates, and indeed there are cultivars such as the British 'Moneymaker' and a number of cultivars grown in Siberia that are specifically bred for indoor growing. |
