Hey all,

Back several years ago I tried that Eat Right 4 Your Type eating plan and actually found - by trial and error - that I have a few food intolerances.

The uncultured cow's milk and wheat don't trouble me too much as I can easily eat cultured milk products or use sheep and goat milk in recipes. Wheat can be substituted with buckwheat, amaranth, spelt, or kamut.

But tomatoes! I used to eat a lot of tomato dishes - spaghetti, gnocchi, stews, chilis, salsas - oh the food I miss - lol!

I know I can't eat them because twice I tried and I found the reason for severe gastrintestinal distress I had suffered from pretty routinely since I was about 15 or so.

Trouble is that I've never found a "taste" substitute so have been eating tomato-free pizza and pastas, but as far as chilis, stews, salsas, sauces - I haven't found anything to replace tomatos.


Can anyone think of something that is a taste-substitute for tomatos?

Thanks in advance! :)

That must be terrible!

I love tomatoes and all sorts of sauces that got with it. I have never heard of that problem and I wish i had a good suggestion.

Do you know what it is in the tomato you get the reaction to?........The acid part?.........If so sun dried might even work better for you




Enjoy the pleasure of life

Interesting.  I am at work now, but when I am at home I will do some research on this.  As for pizza..have you tried any of the "white" pizza recipes?  They may be to your liking.

Frankly I really don't know. The first time I said the heck with it and ordered a pizza when I was on a deadline. I was miserable for two days with intestinal cramping.

The next time hubby bought guacamole that had sun-dried tomatos in it but I thought it wouldn't be a problem since they were listed ninth out of 11 ingredients. Hah! Again I was miserable.

So I really don't know and the misery vetoes experimentation - the pain is that bad.

Yes, I get a white pizza at a place called Sammy's Wood-fired Pizza. It's a Goat Cheese with sauteed wild mushrooms, garlic, spinach and red onions.

I haven't tried their Five Cheese yet with Danish Fontina, Holland smoked Gouda, Romano, mozzarella and crumbled gorgonzola. i'm inclined to get hubby to order it and try a slice but we only order these once a month as they are $10.95 each,

No $4 Domino pizza for me - lol!

But I do miss that sweet/acid flavor of tomatos. I was thinking a plum sauce kind of thing, but don't know if it would be acid-y enough in flavoring. Do you think adding lemon juice may enhance it?

Maybe I'll try it anyways. The supermarket sells that Solo Plum Cake & Pastry Filling...hmmmm maybe I should try mixing it with the Apricot filling....

I myself cannot eat regular tomatoes because of the acid content, so I plant yellow and pink tomato varieties, which are low in acid.  They've solved the acid problem for me.  The yellow ones are also available during the summer months at the grocery store and the Farmer's Market.

I have not forgotten this request. I just did some looking around, and really could not find anything that specifically answers this question.  So, looks like we may have to go with the feedback from folks here.  Sorry I could not be of more help.

Hey Marie and LH,

I didn't want you to think that I wasn't appreciative of your efforts. I was and did chack out Nomato.

I went there on a weekend and since I couldn't order I started clicking around their site and found a list of store links included one to a ketchupworld.com so I went to check it out and found that Nomato uses sugar AND corn syrup and I have to watch those, but they also list the other ingredients so I'm going to try making my own.

You can see that here
http://www.ketchupworld.com/notomato.html

The site is quite interesting in itself, they have all kinds of ketchup, chutneys, barbeque sauces and mustards. Tyey're currently under some sort of re-organization but say they'll be re-opening soon. I guess one could email and ask when if they were interested in their products.

At any rate, thanks again you two for the effort in trying to help me find a tomato substitute. Now, I wonder how banana ketchup might taste on a hawaiian pizza?
:banana:
