Tomato (binomial name Solanum lycopersicum) is a mildly acidic red or yellow pulpy fruit eaten as a vegetable, although technically qualifying as a fruit.^[1]

It is a known flavour of Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans. Fried tomatoes are served at Hogwarts.^[2]

Tomato is an essential component of a BLT, a sandwich consisting of bacon, lettuce and tomato.^[3]

In 1991, while Vernon Dursley took them on the run from wizards, the Dursley family and Harry Potter ate stale cornflakes and cold tinned tomatoes for breakfast while staying at the Railview Hotel.^[4]
