The plum tomato is an elongated, oval-shaped tomato. This variant generally contains less moisture, which makes it ideal for sandwiches. Plum tomatoes are also known as Pomodoro or Roma tomatoes. Like regular tomatoes, this fruit is a climber that is grown vertically along wire in greenhouses.
Plum tomatoes contain approximately 16 kcals, 0,4 grams fat (of which 0,1 gram saturated), 0,5 grams protein, 2,2 grams carbohydrates and 1 gram fibre. Plum tomatoes also contain vitamins B and C, potassium and beta-carotene. The latter helps prevent skin aging and tissue damage.
