Tomatoes

...So good to eat, so easy to prepare!!!

When your customers are looking for real tomato flavor, offer them these vine-ripened beauties with full, ripe taste. Our sunny fields produce ripe, red tomatoes with true garden-fresh flavor - the kind of tomato fans love.

Master's Touch® tomatoes are triumphs of modern agriculture. They are tended with drip irrigation and computerized plant nutrition to produce vigorous plants loaded with specimen tomatoes. Our tomatoes are handpicked, washed and carefully packed before cooling and shipping. Your customers will taste the difference, and you will see it in your sales.

Uses / Nutrition

The tomato is nature's ready-to-eat favorite. Wash it and bite. Or slice it into salads or on sandwiches. It's low in calories, endowed with Vitamins C and A, and the skin and seeds are good sources of fiber. Tomatoes contain phytochemicals such as lycopene that may reduce the incidence of cancer and heart disease. A recent scientific report from the Harvard School of Public Health suggested that men who ate 10 or more servings per week of tomato products, including tomato sauce and pizza sauce are up to 34% less likely to develop prostate cancer. For more information about the possible health benefits of lycopene, visit www.lycopene.org. Fresh tomatoes taste best at room temperature. You can eat tomatoes baked, grilled or blended in delicious gazpacho soup or today's popular salsa recipes. Tomatoes are the heart of Mexican, Italian, and other contemporary cooking. And what's a burger without a tomato?
