[Thorvund1970]

Chef John, a Tomato is a fruit, so wouldn't it be Fruit Sorcery?

[ChuuChuuPanda]

Random comment- but I wish you cooked more healthy foods. n_n Everything looks so delicious, but I don't eat unhealthy meals.

[b1oodh3ll]

@ChuuChuuPanda Then you are not enjoying life :O :P

[ChuuChuuPanda]

@b1oodh3ll D: I wanna beat the odds of being obese in America. >3>; I have my occasional "fatty foods" 8D Eatin' a boston cream donut right now! Booyah!

[b1oodh3ll]

@ChuuChuuPanda Well sorry if i offended you, That was not what i was going for. Eat whatever you want to eat. ^^

[ChuuChuuPanda]

@b1oodh3ll Oh nono, you didn't. hohohoho. 8D

[sssbeb]

What everyone wants for their anniversary - tomato rose.

Ur awesome Chef John!! lol

[enburst]

well its technically a fruit. but ive heard that the nutrients that you get are more similar to a vegetable. And honestly thats what matters in the long run. not the name of what you are eating...but the taste and the nutrients.So i guess when you are thinking about whether or not you eat enough veggies you can include the tomato on your burger XD

[UtterlyMoot]

now I only eat tomato in rose form!

man this BLT is huge

[ProudlyQatari]

Easy

[ShaunieceCooks]

lol what purpose does this serve? absolutely non! lol you're great Chef Todd!

[SecretLifeofMissEna]

"and your significant other will be all like 'tomato rose! your awesome. i love you.' or something to that effect." lol!

[luzrodriguez221]

@SecretLifeofMissEna

[SugarScrub13]

lol what purpose does this serve? none haha

[zackboomer]

@LittleOlDespicableMe yes, they are. you are just a philistine when it comes to food

[iml109]

ChefJohn!! Tomato is a fruit, not vegetable!! :(( U just broke my heart coz I idolizes u so much!

[WhatZDoing]

@iml109 A tomato is classified as a vegetable legally in the US. Although it is a fruit.

Look up supreme court case Nix v. Hedde

[iml109]

@WhatZDoing it was a jest, idk it was fruit until a week before this video got posted, so I was making fun of Chef John.

[cozycushins]

tomato rose! you're awesome. I love you.

Hahahaa~

[sexydds2010]

[PlatypusGuitar]

[LennertG]

I will use this knowledge and make a tomato-vagina! Moehahahaha!

[bweazel]

@LittleOlDespicableMe It's a fruit. Ever heard the saying: Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit, wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.

[kwaiipanda26]

[username121nj]

Awesome. Chef John show us more things you can do with fruits and vegetables.

[helana85]

@LittleOlDespicableMe so a sweet potaote is a fruit? :)

[nellbell1996]

Could I use grape tomatoes to do this?

[nwLohmann]

@nellbell1996 try it , then you know

[ButaChicken]

@LittleOlDespicableMe lol, you crack me up :)

[hekasoram]

Fruits are fruits of a plant (like apples, form apple tree, strawberries from strawberry plant, cucumbers from cucumber plant and tomatoes from tomato plant)

Vegetables are part of the plant like horse radish,or carrots or potatoes(which are part of the root of potato plant) like parsley which are leafs of the parsley plant and so on...

[danielthomasslade]

@hekasoram so, when i smoke weed, is it a fruit or a vegetable?

[DefconBravo]

Fruit is a botanical term, vegetable is a culinary term. They are not mutually exclusive and thus a tomato is both a fruit and a vegetable.

[itsmepri]

so pretty!!

[xXxMySweetChannelxXx]

I'd like to do this with an apple or a strawberry :P

[ButaChicken]

@LittleOlDespicableMe sorry bro, botanically incorrect.

[ButaChicken]

@LittleOlDespicableMe actually if you pick them right off the vine at good ripeness, they are.

[zackboomer]

@LittleOlDespicableMe lol fool, tomatoes are sweet

[rennyjc]

Now fry it. :)

[lovethosedocs]

thanks you! how sweet!

[MollyPocketQueen]

Cute! :) ~

[IsaCuomo]

my mom used to make this to adorn mayonnaise. 

[AlcoholLevel]

sometimes a tomato is just a tomato.

[lolim18]

In the Supreme Court case Nix v. Hedden, the tomato was legally ruled a fruit (for taxing reasons). It's also a fruit because of the way it develops on the plant- no mind the fact that it is less sweet than its berry relatives.

[mayrmo13]

Lol

[ButaChicken]

@LittleOlDespicableMe lol nowhere it says fruit has to be very sweet like some fruits :)

[deeplydeepali]

pur-teh

[JenTheSnarky]

We love you too :) 

[caritusm]

Tomato rose! You are awesome! I love you!

[vida130]

Thats awesome!

[jbmelanie]

Anything with seeds are fruits, just saying.

[luckycheese]

@jbmelanie

all men are fruits?

[shailysinha]

I love you too :)

[colomblanco]

tomato rose! you're awesome, I love you... or something to that effect

[supakiwibaby]

Cute :)

[acomedyturtle]

i know i may be off topic but how come a cucumber isnt a fruit? theres seeds in it isnt there? XD haha..justkidding.

[bweazel]

@acomedyturtle A cucumber is a fruit.

[sadmoon108]

tomato is a fruit because it grows on a vine like tree and it has seeds inside like most fruit have.

[inurenton]

i can make a salami flower

[mymesu]

that is amazing!! i'll try one day :DDD

[TheRealCardshark87]

a tomato is a vegetable

[GlamourKillsTian]

@TheRealCardshark87 the scientific definition of a fruit is basically anything with a seed in it. the fruit protects the embryo.. and tomatos have seeds.. so theyre fruits... so are eggplants :)

[Farobay]

"perfect to show ur feminime side..."

so my conclusion is...

I don't wanna try this... NEVER..!!!

[pipkick]

OMG! HOW DID YOU DO THAT??????!!!!!!!!!!

[ZoilaSolis]

You're so talented in your work. I happen to LOVE roses so I will use This trick the next time I serve a meal to friends or family. Can you do it w other veggieS as well?

You should do a tutorial on how to peel a cherry tomato. I don't see how I could do this.... You have a delicate touch, I'd crush it like bug.
