Free tomatoes gw mag

hi has anyone had allergic reaction to the T & M cherry tomatoes, I have found I can not go into polly tunnel now as my mouth and lips sting when pick or getting close to leaves.  My friend picked tomatoes and her arm went red within 5 mins.

    Some people do have a sensitivity to tomatoes causing the sort of symptoms you describe.  Have you grown tomatoes before and if so have you had similar symptoms? 

    My arms prickle after picking tomatoes  from among the leaves... it doesn't matter which variety ... but nothing more than that. 


    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
