Are tomatoes similar to onions?!
It sounds silly, but I was wondering how close they are to each other (whether they are in the same family) because I noticed that when eating raw tomatoes (by themselves) they produce an aftertaste very similar to the flavor of onions, only more mild!. Anybody know!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
no!. onions are simular to tulip bulbs that grow in the ground!. tomatoes are fruits that grow on a plant!. some things taste alike, like artichokes and sunchokes, but they have nothing else in common!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
