So you wish to know what is a tomato?
A tomato is a collection of mostly hydrogen, carbon and oxygen molecules, with a smattering of other moleculues such as nitrates and phosphates.
All of those molecules are composed of atoms, which comprise mostly empty space and a few subatomic particles blinking rapidly in and out of existence.
Therefore a tomato is mostly empty space, with a few subatomic particles rapidly blinking in and out of existence.
What makes these subatomic particles blink in and out?
Science offers a few different theories here. All of them point to a reality far removed from what you would consider to be "ordinary" or "objective" reality.
One theory says that these subatomic particles blink in and out, depending on whether they are observed by a consciousness or not.
Another theory says that there are actually many different dimensions, and in some of them, the tomato is not even there. It has effectively "blinked" out of existence.
A 3rd theory, the Bohm interpretation, if coupled with the Big Bang theory, tells you that the tomato is connected with everything else in the universe, therefore any change in the tomato immediately affects everything else in the universe, at a speed faster than the speed of light.
That is a tomato.
That's what science tells you. So you see, please be careful about relying too much on science, to support your ideas of what reality ought to be.
