          This has nothing to do with Bob the Tomato. I stumbled over this in the Christian Post today.

          “A Salafist group from Egypt appears to be trying to retract a post on Facebook that warned that eating tomatoes are ‘forbidden because they are Christian.’ However, the Muslim traditionalist group, calling themselves the Popular Egyptian Islamic Association, apparently still finds tomatoes offensive if they are cut in such a way that reveals the shape of a cross, according to the Now Lebanon website.”
