Fun Fact

Did you know that lycopene is a fat-soluble compound? This means lathering up your Roma with a small amount of healthy fat, such as olive oil or avocado oil, helps your body absorb lycopene best. So, whether you go for raw or cooked, Romas are tomatoes with options. Simply bring your appetite and your imagination to the table.
