Tomato Feed - Uses?

I have planted tomatoes again this year but have a big bottle of tomato liquid feed still in the shed from last year.
I have strawberries growing now and some are already ripe, can I use liquid tomato feed to encourage more fruit? Also can I use it on peas/beans etc and also my apple trees?
I have fertilizer pellets that I put down in the veg patch a few weeks before planting, can I dilute/disolve these and use in the same way?
I am loathed to buy different types of fertilizer/feed if they all do the same thing?

Strawberries love tomtato food. I use it on all my greenhouse stuff (Courgettes, marrows, squash,etc etc) and alos on my potatoes.i get great results on all.
Not sure about using on all crops though.0 -
I use it on my Cardoons, and every year they get to over 10 feet tall with a little help from tomato feed.0

It can be used on any plant that fruits or flowers with succes, you may want to 1/2 the quantity of feed to water on some younger plants. Don't feed toms peppers chillis etc until you see fruit forming.You can't have everything....where would you put it?0
