Default Vegetables for acid reflux sufferers?

A great low acid tomato is the White Wonder or the White Bianca (at
www.pepperjoes.com Tell him Carla Goodloe sent ya.) He may have some
low acid peppers too. Just email him. He does respond pretty fast. I
believe the Golden variety of tomatoes such as Golden Boy or Golden
Ray are lower in acid than red varieties. A good red variety that I
enjoyed was the Striped Marvel. It is highly sweet and delicious and
I didn't get indigestion from eating it. Hope this helps!

Gardening time is here, but this year we have a problem. The wife has acid
reflux disease. We planted tomatos, peppers, green beans, lettuce, spinach,
zuccini, and a few other things in the past. We were really big into
tomatos and peppers..would you believe :-( Can anyone suggest different
varieties that have a low acid content or some ideas about vegetables to
plant that would be more tolerable for the wife. TIA.
