It’s a simple rule, and I should have decided on it long ago. Better late than never though.
Have you ever cut a new tomato for a sandwich, or a burger, and taken that slice or two out of the middle; then put the two tomato halves together, wrapped them in plastic or in a baggie, and either 1) used then the next day, all soggy, or 2) 6 days later looked at them and thought, "Ugh, that’s disgusting!" And thrown them away?
Mosca’s tomato rule: IF YOU CUT A TOMATO, EAT IT. ALL OF IT. RIGHT THEN.
That’s it. Simple. Take that slice out of the middle? You’re committed, pally! Cut the rest into wedges and snack on them, or have them as your side vegetable. None of that, "Oh, this will be great tomorrow!" Because it won’t be. It will suck tomorrow.
Count it as the cost of eating a great fruit (vegetable, whatever). God gave us tomatoes to enjoy, not to tolerate, not to endure. Eat the tomato.
