About Tomato half

Tomato halves are nutrient-packed and versatile, commonly used in cuisines worldwide, particularly Mediterranean, Italian, and Latin American. Tomatoes are fruits but often treated as vegetables in cooking. A single half is low in calories and contains vitamin C, potassium, folate, and vitamin K. They are also rich in antioxidants, including lycopene, which is linked to reduced risks of heart disease and certain cancers. Tomatoes are naturally low in fat, cholesterol, and sodium but high in water content, making them hydrating and beneficial for weight management. While fresh tomato halves are a healthy choice, preparation matters—adding excessive salt, cheese, or oils may increase sodium and fat content. They can be consumed raw, grilled, or roasted, holding their place as a nutritious and flavorful ingredient to enhance salads, sandwiches, and more.
