I didn't like fresh tomato until I ate a good Italian bruschetta. The tomato / onion / basil pesto combo converted me.

Even with tomatoes, I'm not that fussy so generally I'll still eat them fresh assuming there other ingredients that change the flavor a bit.

Give bruschetta a go. It worked wonders for me. Tomato and mozzarella salad with pesto is also something special.

I've had bruschetta from time to time, and sometimes I like it, though I prefer more of the olive-based variety.
