Is it possible for tomatoes (or fruits/vegetables in general) to get cancer?

Asked by d_felice (292points) November 3rd, 2009

I cut into what looked to be a perfectly ripe and healthy tomato last night, and found a strange, meaty/fleshy looking “growth.” It was much different than any type of basic mold I’ve seen before. I’m wondering if it could have been some sort of “fruit cancer.” Thoughts??
