Ralf, who also starred in hit shows The Royle Family and Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps, looked visibly sick to his stomach when discussing tomatoes.
Nominating his "food hell", Ralf said: "Tomatoes.. That's it. Don't bring them anywhere near me.
"I am very, very strange with it.
"I can eat a pizza very happily with it if there's a tomato sauce, but if there's a slice of a tomato pizza..."
Ralf then gags at the thought of it, before continuing: "I can't, I can't. Get it away from me.
"There's something about a lump of tomato that's just..."
He then gagged again before joking to the panel: "I'll talk to my therapist about it."
Saturday Kitchen viewers are asked to vote for show guest's Food Heaven or Food Hell.
At the end of the show, Ralf will have to eat his their "heaven or hell" dish based on what fans decide.
BBC's Saturday Kitchen airs weekly at 10am.

WITH the return of the Premier League, it also meant the return of long-running football highlights juggernaut, Match of the Day.

Mark Chapman - one of three presenters who will be taking over from Lineker alongside Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates - was in the hot seat for the first episode of the post-Lineker era. He was joined in the studio by usual suspect, Alan Shearer, and Wayne Rooney, who has signed an £800,000 deal to appear on the show regularly for the upcoming season. Advertisement With new teams and players in the top flight as well, there was naturally a new intro compilation backed by the iconic Match of the Day theme tune. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL ROO BEGINNING New look MOTD kicks off as Wayne Rooney joins Mark Chapman to start season Burnley and Sunderland were welcomed back to the Premier League, with the latter being top of the programme for their 3-0 hammering of West Ham, doubtless to the dismay of Newcastle icon Shearer. Chapman kicked off the proceedings with a joke about the changes, quipping that Rooney was the only real change before adding that Shearer was delighted to see Sunderland back. As it turned out, Shearer had a moment of choler on the show as he launched a huge rant about Toon rebel Alexander Isak as the Swede continues to try to force an exit.

BBC calls in police to investigate new Strictly allegations
The BBC has asked the police to investigate Strictly Come Dancing amid fresh allegations, according to reports, after claims two of its stars used cocaine. The Sun On Sunday reported that the corporation has alerted the Metropolitan Police to new allegations about the hit dance competition show, the details of which it does not specify. A BBC spokesperson said on Saturday the corporation does not comment on police investigations. It comes after reports in The Sun earlier this month alleged two Strictly cast members' drug use was discussed on the BBC dancing show, and said that the corporation had appointed law firm Pinsent Masons to lead the investigation. The scandal-hit show was also the subject of a review in 2024, when the BBC looked into allegations of bullying and harassment against former professional dancer Giovanni Pernice, made by his former dance partner Amanda Abbington. The corporation upheld some, but not all, of the complaints made – and introduced a series of new measures aimed at improving welfare. This included the introduction of a chaperone who is present 'at all times' during training room rehearsals. EastEnders star James Borthwick was also suspended from the BBC after a video emerged of the actor using a disabled slur on the set of the dance programme. The cocaine use allegations were reportedly made in a legal submission by law firm Russells in March on behalf of former contestant Wynne Evans, who was dropped by the BBC after apologising for using 'inappropriate language' during the launch of the Strictly tour. It is understood that the BBC often appoints external law firms to help it lead investigations. The BBC spokesperson previously said: 'We have clear protocols and policies in place for dealing with any serious complaint raised with us. 'We would always encourage people to speak to us if they have concerns. It would not be appropriate for us to comment further.' The Metropolitan Police has been contacted for comment.
