My mother had a recipe for canned tomatoes that had you putting dried bread heels in the jar. I suspect to was to absorb excess moisture, but that's the way we ate tomatoes all winter.
It got so that I couldn't stomach tomatoes except in catsup. It was decades before I found out that tomatoes don't have to taste like soggy bread.
