The squirrels in my yard have kept me from getting even ONE
lousy peach from my tree for 6 years now, but I've never seen
them eating a tomato, and I've brought in LOTS this summer.

One possibility: We've got a bird feeder, and the squirrels
hang around it for the stuff the birds drop. Maybe they
prefer birdseed to tomatos?
