Tomato never bothered me but everyone is different. If you like tomato stuff, I would say try just a couple bites and see how it goes (try it at home, though, in case it doesn't go well).

Am I over-cautious? - no you are not...

And almost 4 years out... I can't eat too much tomato sauce. And always make sure I use one with no sugar added. I love salsa, and eat that a lot unless I have ulcer or really irritated pouch...
But - now I probably have an ulcer ... and I was kind of ignoring that... but a serving of home made tomato soup made me cry... pain.. and more pain...
So be careful.

New pouch or irritated pouch - the acid in tomato may really do a number on you... And the sugar - if you do not dump ... that still may start carb - blood sugar up and downs.

I had 60 mL of V8 3 days post-op. Didn't cause me any trouble, but everyone is different.

I was cleared for ketchup, tomatoes and salsa at one week post op. Never had any problems with them. I do use the Heinz No Sugar Added ketchup, though, to cut the sugars.
