Health Benefits Of Tomatoes
by Tim Sousa

Did you know that tomatoes were once considered poison? It's true, the tomato is a member of the nightshade family, and was at one time considered to be toxic. Tomatoes were first eaten in the U.S. in the early 1800's, when a gentleman by the name of Robert Johnson shocked his hometown by eating a basket of tomatoes in the middle of town.

Asparagus is a sweet and nutty flavored vegetable that is as versatile in color as it can be in serving styles.

There are three types of asparagus widely available in grocery and specialty stores today. 1. Green Asparagus, this is the traditional type of asparagus that can be found sold in bunches of either young thin and tender spears or older heartier thick spears. 2. Purple Asparagus, this newer variety is a deeply colored asparagus that requires special techniques when cooking. For purple asparagus to retain its distinctive purple color it must be cooked with some sort of acidity such as lemon juice or vinegar. 3. White Asparagus is nothing more than green asparagus that was covered with soil during the growing season. By covering the asparagus with soil chlorophyll is not produced by the plant. White asparagus while delightful as an alternative is less sweet and not as tender as its green counter part.

They can range from a true farmers market with farm fresh produce locally grown and sold by the farmer to more of an arts and crafts show. When shopping at a farmers market the consumer needs to be wary of anyone selling fruit or vegetables that are not locally grown or are out of season. It is becoming common practice for some marketers to purchase the same produce that is available at the grocery and sell it in the farmers market venue.
