    Can anyone answer this (probably silly question)? If you have a Nutribullet, have you ever blitzed tomatoes? If so, could you still feel the texture of the skin after blitzing? Looking for a quicker way to process tomatoes from the allotment then the manual way of removing skins. Used an ordinary blender but could still taste the texture of the skins. TIA

    But it is so quick and easy to peel tomatoes! Boiling water for one minute, ice water for one minute, pick them up and the skin almost falls off!

    Still absolutely nothing from Waities though. :mad: Have had an email about amalgamating my Waities and JL cards but bit loathe to do that when I have been getting post from JL as who knows what might happen. :eek:

    I've amalgamated and received JL free coffee/cake voucher and also a promotional Waitie email.

    At some point they will be more interested in amalgamated accounts than those who haven't bother, where they will judge you have no interest in either store.
