I have heard that it is important to wash fruits and vegetables with a bit of soap in order to get rid of insectisides and other toxins. I also have some family and friends who peel tomatoes when using them for salad.

Thanks for the information. We eat a lot of fresh tomatoes in my home and I never knew how much they contribute to good health. My daughter's favorite bedtime snack is a tomatoe! In general, my family enjoys a wide variety of fruits and vegetables! Thanks for the update and I wish you the best of health!
