The great tomato scandal

 

tomato.jpgDid you know that over 80% of fresh tomatoes consumed in this country have been imported.

 
I've just found that fact out from a press release about British Tomato Week which is running from 19th-25th May.
 
It aims to highlight this declining produce at events around the country and the Houses of Parliament and calls on MPs to end our reliance on cheap food imports.
