Desert Island Vegetables 3

My third choice of vegetable for my fantasy desert island, the Tomato is botanically classed as a fruit. However as I have yet to see either a Tomato cheesecake or one feature in a fruit salad for practical purposes I am going to regard it as a vegetable.

If I were limited to one variety I would go for a plum type but as I love tomatoes (their original name was Love Apples) I really would like to grow several sorts. Their culinary versatility is impressive; from the delight of eating straight off the vine to making ketchup for my fish and chips – assuming I master the art of fishing on my island.
