Are tomatoes OK on South Beach?

[GB]

My wife has just started doing the South Beach diet (sort of). she is not following it exactly I don't think, but is using it as a guide. She is unsure if tomatoes are OK on that diet though and I really have no idea either. Does anyone know? Thanks!

Tomatoes along with nearly all veggies are fine on South Beach. This link is a bit naughty as it is to another (brilliant) forum, but as it is about weight loss rather than cooking, I am quite happy to post it here. There is a large section devoted to South Beach with a lot of (free) information

Oh, dearie me. Any diet that doesn't allow tomatoes should be banned for all eternity as a sin against summer. BTW, anyone need a tomato?
